		In 1856, the King was judged to be insane, and his younger brother, Wilhelm, served as Regent until his death in 1861.
		Wilhelm then became King Wilhelm I. The 1842 model helmet was ridiculous, even by 19th century standards.
		It was so tall that it was proposed that the soldiers carry their mess kits inside the top of the helmet, and it was very unpopular with the troops, as it had a tendency to fall off during drill.

	Mauser - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Mauser is the common name of German arms manufacturer Mauser-Werke Oberndorf Waffensysteme GmbH, as well as the line of bolt action rifles they built for the German armed forces.
		Mauser also incorporated a new, third "safety" lug on the bolt body to protect the shooter in the event that one or more of the forward locking lugs failed.
		Mauser, now a subsidiary of Rheinmetall, still manufactures autocannons, such as the Mauser BK-27 revolver cannon used in the Eurofighter.

		In 1867 Wilhelm and Paul Mauser invented a rotating bolt system for breechloaders that was simpler and quicker to operate than systems currently in service.
		Mauser found themselves for the first time following the state of the art, and chose to use the new round for many of their future designs.
		This model was widely employed by the Spanish Army, and was used to tremendous effect during the Battle of San Juan Hill in Cuba where 700 Spanish regulars held off an attack by 15,000 US troops armed with.30-40 Krag-Jorgensen for twelve hours.

	Bill Oilke - The Mauser
		Peter Paul Mauser and his brother Wilhelm created the Mauser companies that grew to be the arms giant that it was.
		Mauser's attempts to sell this design to various European countries didn't work as most had just equipped their armies with the needle guns and considered them sufficient.
		By now the Mauser bolt-action rifle was used by dozens of governments, made in many countries under license, and in many calibers, but the most popular was the 7 x 57.

		Paul (1838-1914) and Wilhelm Mauser (1834-1882) were born in Oberndorf, Wurttemberg, the sons of a gunsmith in the Wurttemberg Royal Armory.
		The first design that Mauser was credited for the majority of the design work was the Model 1871, though he had collaborated with an American named Norris on the conversion of Chassepot needle guns to handle metallic cartridges several years prior to the M71's introduction.
		The 88 marks an important stage in the development of the Mauser action in that it was the first one designed to handle the much higher pressures generated by the then-newly-developed smokeless-powder cartridge.

	The Mauser 98 K rifle (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		During the Spanish-American War of 1898, the Krag was pitted against Paul Mauser’s newest creation, the 1893 Mauser, which utilized a new system of loading employing a stripper clip which could be conveniently inserted into the rifle’s breech and five rounds wiped into the rifle’s magazine quickly.
		In general the Mauser 98 action was viewed as stronger than the '03's; resultantly the Mauser was the action of choice for hunters looking for power.
		Both the Mauser 98 and the Springfield '03 are commonly regarded as World War I rifles; yet, both went on to arm millions of soldiers during World War II.

		A new and improved Mauser model was adopted by Spain as the 7x57mm Modelo Espanol 1893, which began the evolution of the Mauser rifle to become the most desired military arm for half a century.
		Peter Paul Mauser died in 1914 and did not see how devastating the German Mauser was in WW I. In 1903 an improved form of 7.92x57 ammunition was introduced.

		Wilhelm Mauser from Oberndorf, Germany, arrived in Belgrade, capital of Serbia, in July 1879.
		Remaining Turkish Mausers from the Model 90T onward as well as existing supplies of Austrian Steyr Mannlicher rifles from the Model 1888/90 onward were also reworked into short rifles generally resembling the M1924 specifications and converted to 7.92x57mm.
		The Steyr-Mannlicher Model 1895 rifle was shortened and renamed the M95M, the second "M" denoting Mauser, as it was converted to use standard Mauser stripper clips, given a tangent Mauser rear sight while its outward appearance was made to resemble that of the standard M24 Mauser short rifle.

	Spanish Mauser
		The 7 x 57 mm Mauser rifle was the standard armament of the Spanish forces during the Spanish American War.
		The Mauser 93 was the basis for the development of the American rifle Springfield M1903, and it was intended to be used by “first line” or regular troops.
		The smoothness of operation of the Mauser, and the use of smokeless powder were the weapon's primary advantages.

		Wilhelm Mauser arrived in Belgrade, capitol of Serbia in July 1879.
		Existing Mausers in 7x57mm and 7.65mm, all with badly worn or pitted bores could be rebored to 7.9mm and restored to service using existing barrels, a major savings in money and time.
		The ammunition was loaded to a lower pressure level than standard in other countries using 7.92mm ammunition because of the questionable strength of some of the older models of rifle (Poland and China were compelled to follow the same path as Yugoslavia for the same reason).
