This video from Forgotten Weapons examines a unique, handmade rifle from Ethiopia that exhibits a hybrid design, incorporating elements reminiscent of Vetterli, Mauser, Portuguese Vergueiro/Mannlicher, and possibly Chinese firearms. The rifle features a Vetterli-like receiver and action, but with a Mauser-style safety. Its caliber is indeterminate, estimated around .30 caliber, with a crudely made single-stack magazine and non-functional sights and bayonet lug. The construction is clearly artisanal, with many parts appearing handmade or heavily modified.
