Offered here is a classic Loewe-manufactured bolt-action rifle, serial number L4609, produced by Ludwig Loewe & Co. of Berlinan important early maker of Mauser-pattern firearms prior to the formation of DWM in 1897. Based on the maker and configuration, this rifle was likely produced in the early-to-mid 1890s. This rifle features a traditional wood stock with a smooth, well-aged finish, a long tapered barrel, and a classic bolt-action system indicative of early Mauser design influence. The metalwork shows a pleasing vintage patina, while the stock retains good character with visible grain and honest wear consistent with age. An excellent piece for collectors of antique European arms or anyone seeking a representative example from the transitional Loewe production era.
