11.5x50R Bavarian Werder M69

The Weder rifle design was an amazing ergonomic refinement of the single-shot breech loading rifle that allowed for an incredibly fast rate of fire of between 20 and 24 rounds per minute! The action used a Peabody-Martini inspired dropping block but was completely unique. A forward trigger at the front of the trigger guard acted as a release for the breech block. By pushing this release lever forward, the block dropped under significant spring pressure and ejected the spent cartridge from the chamber. When the soldier inserted a fresh cartridge in the chamber and swept his hand to the rear, he hit an offset cocking lever that closed the action and cocked the firing pin, preparing the rifle to fire. With two simple, fluid motions, the rifle was ready to fire. The amazing speed with which the rifle could be loaded and fired is the why the guns have developed the nickname “Lightning”.
