Rifle Name: Vetterli Repetierstutzer 1871 Calibre: 10.4mm Vetterli First Issued: 1871 Number of Pieces: 16000 Overall Length: 1260 mm Weight (unloaded): 4540 g Barrel Length: 783 mm Rifling Dir.: R Grooves: 4 Magazine Capacity: 10 Rounds Permission required: Ger: Schriftlicher Vertrag, Meldung an zuständige Polizeibehörde.

Description:

From 1871 to 1874, SIG Neuhausen produced 1,000 Stutzer (probably numbers 1 to 1000).   About 13'000 pieces (?) were produced from 1869 to 1875 by "Eidgenössische Montierwerkstätte", which later became "Eidgenössische Waffenfabrik Bern (W+F)" (probably numbers 1001 to about 13745). The renaming must have taken place somewhere between numbers 10374 (Montierwerkstätte Bern, MW) and 10674 (Waffenfabrik Bern).   The total number of pieces is therefore a maximum of 14'000 pieces.   Some of the rifles were marked with the markings (signs, internal numberings) of the cantonal armouries.   The author of swisswaffen.com dares to claim that the numbering of the Vetterli Repetierstutzer 1871 went from about 1 to 138xx, the numbering of the Vetterli Repetierstutzer 1881 then from about 138xx to 21xxx.
