History:
The Mauser Model Argentino 1909 is a German-engineered, bolt-action rifle adopted by Argentina in 1909. It was manufactured by the German arms manufacturer Deutsche Waffen- und Munitionsfabriken (DWM) for Argentina’s military forces, blending German precision with Argentinian specifications. This rifle stands as a symbol of early 20th-century craftsmanship and played a role in Argentina's military development leading up to and during World War I, although Argentina remained neutral in the conflict. Though Argentina was neutral in WWI, the Mauser 1909 reflects German influence in South American military arms. The rifle became a standard-issue weapon for the Argentinian armed forces and is a favorite among collectors today, thanks to its high-quality build, classic Mauser action, and historical legacy.
