Germany provided a lot of Mauser rifles (and Krupp field guns) to anyone who was fighting against the British. (It is the source for the line, "When I can tell at sight a Mauser rifle from a Javelin," from The Major General's Song.) The 1871 Model would fit your requirements, Zirrian. If Germany did not supply them direct, they would have supplied them via an intermediary such as The Ottoman Empire.

Strelets has a regularly & long-standing release rate of 2 batches with respectively 10-12 sets per year.
Taking into account that their latest sets were released in October last year, we can hopefully expect their next batch of figures sometine around March.
Just guessing here, but I really would like to order those fantastic looking WWI Arabs & the WWII Pacific sets as soon as possible. :love:
