MauserWerke

MauserWerke is a German firearms manufacturer with a long and storied history, dating back to the mid-19th century. The company was founded by Wilhelm Mauser and his brother Paul Mauser. Initially, they focused on developing and producing bolt-action rifles. Their early innovations revolutionized military rifle design, leading to the adoption of their rifles by the German army and many other armed forces around the world.

The Mauser Kar98k rifle, introduced in the late 1930s, became one of the most famous and widely produced bolt-action rifles of all time, serving as the standard infantry weapon for Germany during World War II. Beyond military firearms, MauserWerke also produced hunting rifles, sporting firearms, and eventually diversified into other industrial products, including aircraft components and typewriters, particularly during periods of economic transition.

Over the decades, the company underwent various structural changes and ownership transitions. However, the Mauser name has remained synonymous with high-quality, durable, and accurate firearms. Today, Mauser is known for its precision hunting rifles and continues to be a respected brand in the global firearms market, upholding a legacy of engineering excellence and innovation.
