Hi all! I have a Steyr Modelo 1912 (Chilean Mauser) originally in 7mm that was rechambered (?)at some point to 7.62 NATO. I have been wanting to get an original bayonet for it and I found on World of Bayonets that the correct bayo is the Knife bayonet for M1912 Mauser rifles and carbines produced for Chileicon by the Austrian firm Oesterreichsche Waffenfabrik-Gesellschaft of Steyr.
I don’t have the rifle in front of me to see if it has the original 7mm
barrel or if it was just rechambered?? Is anyone familiar with these conversions? If so, will the original bayonet still fit over the muzzle? THANKS!!!
