what type of wood used to make stocks? my light colored one seems to be birch while the grain and color of dark one appears to be walnut. both are steyr M95 carbine.

The straight pull bolt action is a better design than the Swiss Schmidt-Rubin except for it's evil and hateful bolt head. I

How is it better than the Swiss design? Just because the bolt head is forward locking? I would prefer the M1911 and K-11 design, the M1889 I am not sure about.

One of the rarest and a life goal to try and find and own (WW1 sniper):

i received my third M95 on 24th december. it is hungarian budapest. this goes along side my 2 Steyr M95 carbines. #2621A.
i have 3 boxes of 1938 nazi and 20 cartridges hornady. i will save hornady for reloading. the nazi comes on stripper clips so i now have 16 enblock clips. the butt stock has an oval repair where bottom sling was removed and a sling bracket is now on side of butt stock. dated 1908 . cai labeled it as M9534 while my 2 Steyr are labeled M95 all in that ugly dot matrix style.

Took the buttplate off of one of mine, and it was hollowed out. Looked like something was stored there, but alas it was empty! Would have been real cool if something from the soldier was stored there!

[billmaykafer]

only 1 of my 3 M95's has hollowed out cavity.

[NOTABIKER]

PPU at ammo brothers 22 bucks a box of 20. that is what new 30-6 costs me. i love my Steyr but i do not plan to shoot it a lot. as long as i can get ammo for 22 bucks that works for me.

So which part of my M95 rifle still has the original parts that could have been used in The Great War?

Actually, I have no problem with the recoil when I have the buttplate tight against my shoulder. Only use factory new ammo for it.There is more detailed information on here on these guns than any site I have found on the internet. There is a book available on these guns through Amazon, but I doubt that it has better information than found here. Now to get my gun out of the safe and have it on my lap and check out the markings and details that are posted here to find out what they really mean. Should pull the shades or the neighbors will think I'm weird!

Wow, thanks for sharing!

Even after it was re-barreled to 8x56r ?
