Talk:Mukden Arsenal Mauser

Star Class Assessment
This article is on the way to B-Class. Here are some suggestions I have to get it there.
 * Who designed it and hat is the rifle's official name? I doubt the Japanese would've called it a Manchurian Mauser
 * Cite the Prodution dates and design date. If possible find out what team designed it. (Like Hamada did for the Type 1 and 2 Pistols or Nambu for his line of weapons)
 * Where was it used primarily? Did any of them get used by other militaries as a stop gap after the war?
 * Are there production figures? I know a lot of documents were destroyed by firebombings and lost through time but any educated guesses through production numbers?
 * If there were any attachable features be sure to add them (grenade launchers, bayonets, etc)

Good work and thank you for expanding a topic about the military industrial complex of Japan. --Molestash (talk) 22:19, 15 December 2016 (UTC)
 * (pinging because I dont know if you decided to watch the page), not a whole lot appears to be known, or at least I am searching under the wrong name, I have seen a lot of different names for it (none in chinese or japanese),  such as the type 13 mauser, etc. I have found it as Mukden Arsenal Mauser 98 for a few sources, I don't know if that would be a better name.


 * I'm still looking for the rest of the information. Iazyges   Consermonor   Opus meum  22:26, 15 December 2016 (UTC)

Anyone with a Deutsches Waffen Journal digital subscription or an access to a German library with the magazine?
In the December 2004 number there is an article about the M.17 rifle, the predecessor of this one: https://www.gunboards.com/threads/steyr-m-17-30-rifle.409385 Ain92 (talk) 13:27, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
