It's for the Austrian M95 (Mannlicher). You can find boxes of unfired ( 10 rounds in 2 clips ) at gun shows from $5-15, depends on who's selling them. The boxes are dated 1938 and 1939.

The clip is a different style on this one. I don't know if it's unique to the 1939 dated ones or if both styles were used at the same time.

The head stamp on the 1939 dated box is the same as the 1938 box. Johnny, I put Austrian by mistake it's Hungarian M95.

Hey Raymond, Thanks for the info & the pics. When I saw the bird & the swaz, I thought that it was some sort of fantasy piece. Is that same marking found on the rifle also? Thanks again, Johnny

It is a bit ch to shoot in a short barreled rifle like the M95 Stutzen. The cartridges and clips were new manufacture and thus you find the Reich Adler. The rifles were taken over from existing stock by the Nazis and most remained unmarked.

Most of the M95's had no nazi markings of any kind. Although it's become fairly popular recently for less than honest sellers to add waffenampts to the rifles.

My friend Andy (Militarynut) e-mailed me and said I was correct with the Austrian designation. I also see in my books that Mannlicher's were captured from the Dutch also. So several countries used this style. I see two different calibers 6.5mm and 7.9mm. Does anyone have an Austrian M95? I'd like to see the markings on the receiver. Andy also said a box goes for $25 these days. Thanks Andy.

Timboo, that is good to know. Good looking out, Thanks
Yeah Raymond, Andy is one sharp guy. He has had or handled just about everything at one time or another.

The Austrian M95's were marked "Steyr M95" where as the rifles produced for Hungary were marked "Budapest". The nazi marked ammo was as cheap as $4.00 a box just a year ago, but I the supply may finally be drying up.

Thanks Timboo. Maybe I'll find one at the gun shows. Would look nice side by side.
