So I'm considering making another rifle purchase after getting some more money in the bank. I've been thinking on the Steyr M95 rifle since I've seen one on gunbroker for 195. That a fair price for a purchase? Any info anyone has on these will be quite helpful as well. I haven't looked into this type of rifle. All I really know about it is that it has the magazine style used in the Italian Carcano and French Berthier

i bought one before summer this year from j and g and they were only $99 then mine is a 95/34 and its a nice light weight carbine. i think if you search you can find one for less then $190 you saw

Same here.... I got 2 from J&G before they sold out. Check some of the distributors first... They may have good deals still.

I would say 150 and under unless it is a special one like a Bulgarian. Some people have ordered the regular ones and gotten Bulgarian for the cheap price. Check the ditributers first and then watch for good deals on gb. I paid 150 for one a while back and 125 for a nice Budapest not to long ago. great carbines and a blast to shoot.

I agree with the others, look around a little more for a better deal.... As far as getting one? Heck yes... I really like mine...

Try SOG. They have some ~$110

If you have a C&R license you can get a Steyr 1895 carbine from SOG for $89.00.

I lack a C&R so I don't think I can take advantage of that $89 price tag. Do they have the rifle length model at SOG and can I get it from them through a local dealer?

Rifle length Steyrs are in a whole different price range. They bring much more unless you get real lucky

Long rifle steyrs for 195 Is ok for sure. And yes your ffl can order one from sog. Just ask them and they will likely do it for you.

i was at a gun store and noticed 2 Steyr 95s their. i instantly fell in love. not much bigger than a M1 Carbine but shoots a 8mm 210 grain bullet. well i found a beauty private party. it came with 80 rounds of 1938 surplus ammo for 200 bucks. also came with end blocks. it looks un used. i already took it apart and cleaned it. next to the range with a hefty slip on pad.
hard to believe such a nice looking rifle is not more popular. ammo price is not a issue. if i want to shoot a lot i will shoot the M-44 & T 53.

I agree, here is one the $99 specials I picked up from J&G last year. Very light weight and prolly a little more kick than the M44.

Is that clip just to charge the mag or is it required to make the magazine feed properly?

Yes, it is required, like on a M1 Garand. These don't pop out the top like a Garand though. They fall out the bottom when you cycle the last round. Mannlicher design.

Might have to get another.

I just got a couple of Hungarian M95/34 from SOG and they were $109 each, both are nice condition though I'd spend the extra $10 and get a hand select if I was going to keep one.
Not sure if the $89 are out of stock but I don't see them listed now.

do they typically come with a clip, or do you have to find them elsewhere?

Unless purchased from a private party that obtained the clip and is including in the sale, the rifle will not include the clip. the clips are available though, I believe I paid $10.00 bucks for two. It can be fired a single shot until the clip is located. Lots of a history with these, widely used by German forces as a substitute standard rifle in WWII

The $89 ones are the $109 ones. They are running a 12 days of Xmas sale & there is one day they are at a reduced price. Order early.

thanks. I looked up some online and they can be had for $7-$10 or so. The price of ammo is the only thing keeping me from getting one. I reload but don't have the time (or desire) to add another caliber
