Gewehr 71/84

The Mauser G 71/84 can be regarded as a weapon of transition. It is indeed about the association of a cylinder head of Gewehr 71 with a tubular store. This weapon will never be used in great number by the German army. It nevertheless will be exported under alternatives in Serbia and in the Ottoman Empire.
