1895 Chilean Mauser (mocked up as Remington-Keene)

Anwar-Efendi/Captain Perepyolkin (Aleksandr Lykov) uses during the firefight in the mountains the 1895 Chilean Mauser, mocked up as a Remington-Keene Repeating Rifle.The front part of the wooden foregrip was removed, and a fake tubular magazine was mounted. The exact model is ID'd by the shape of the bolt shroud, which is the Model 1893 style, and the unique safety lug on the receiver tang behind the bolt handle of the Model 1895 can be clearly distinguished. The presence of a thumb cut in the receiver wall most likely makes this a Serbian Model 1899.
