This review details a rare Gewehr 71 rifle equipped with an experimental horseshoe-shaped magazine from the early 1880s. The Gewehr 71 was the first Mauser adopted by the German military, and this variant showcases early attempts at magazine feeding following the Russo-Turkish War. The unique external magazine design, developed by Ludwig Loewe, allowed for approximately 8 rounds and featured a cutoff for single-shot use.
