I like the Mannlicher but then I have a soft spot for butter knife bolt handles. It would have been very nice to have seen it in its full Mannlicher stock, but it is what it is, eh. I do have a question about it. Being quite new to the study of German/Austrian rifles I am learning something every day. What is with the full length rib on top of the barrel? I don't recall having ever seen that.
