Luger self-loading rifle

Not to be confused with the various models of Luger carbines produced in 9x19mm, this is an experimental self-loading rifle designed by Georg Luger for the German military. It uses the same toggle-lock action as his famous pistol, but is scaled up and chambered for the 8mm Mauser cartridge.

We only have a couple auction photos at the moment, but hopefully we can unearth some more detailed information about the design.
