Carbine Hole Mystery Solved~
There was a question as to why there were holes drilled in both carbine stocks??? Those who voted to lighten the rifle originally were correct! The 1902 model was made for Kaiser Wilhelm who was born with a deformed arm and only fire a light weight, one handed capable rifle to hunt. This design was copied in the 1920 model!!
