EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Mauser Gewehr 98, a remarkable 7.92 mm bolt action rifle from 1917. Known for its exceptional design and reliability, this German soldier's standard weapon played a crucial role in World War One (1914-1918). In comparison to the British SMLE, the Gewehr 98 boasted an impressive length and superior craftsmanship. Its robustness and accuracy were highly regarded among soldiers on the battlefield. With a muzzle velocity of 870.2 meters (2,855 feet) per second, it delivered powerful shots that left an indelible impact. The significance of this particular rifle lies in its capture by the Duke of Cambridge's Own Middlesex Regiment in 1917. As a testament to their bravery and strategic prowess, this trophy symbolizes their triumph over enemy forces during intense combat. Displayed at London's National Army Museum, this photograph immortalizes not only the physical attributes of the Mauser Gewehr 98 but also pays homage to those who wielded it with skill and valor on behalf of their country.
