Mannlicher M1886

The Repeating Rifle Model 1886 commonly known as Mannlicher Model 1886 was a late 19th-century Austrian straight-pull bolt action rifle, adopted in 1886.

History
The M1886 itself was an improvement of the Mannlicher Model 1885 Trials Rifle that was a prototype, meant to replace the by then obsolete M1867 Werndl-Holub drum-breech single shot rifle. It was the first of the Austrio-Hungarian service rifles to introduce the feature of the clip dropping out of the bottom of the magazine when the last round is chambered.

Conversions
Between 1888-1892 95% of the M1886 rifles were converted (rebarreled) to 8x50mmR Mannlicher under the designation M1886-88.
