The Mannlicher Model 1895 (M.95) straight pull rifle was originally adopted the the Austo-Hungarian Empire in 1895. Post WWI, in the 1930's, most would be shortened to carbine length and re-chambered to the new 8x56mmR cartridge. This is where the term M.95/30 comes from. The rifle would continue to see limited service in Europe through WWII.
