What was the name of the forerunner of the bolt-action rifle chambered for the 7.92×57mm Mauser cartridge that was adopted on 21 June 1935 as the standard service rifle by the German "Wehrmacht"?
Chiang Kai-shek rifle The Type Zhongzheng rifle (中正式), also known as the "Chiang Kai-shek/Jiang Jieshi Rifle", "Generalissimo Rifle", and "Type 24" (二四式) after the Chinese Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek, was a Chinese-made copy of the German Mauser M1924, the forerunner of the Karabiner 98k. Pre-production of the Chiang Kai-shek rifle started in August 1935 (year 24 of the Republican calendar, hence the Type 24). It was later renamed the Type Zhongzheng and was in full-scale production as early as late 1935. It was designated the Type 79 by the Chinese Communists and would often have the ideograph of Chiang defaced by them. Although the Hanyang 88 rifle was produced in greater numbers than the Type Zhongzheng, the full standardization of the Type Zhongzheng rifle only started during the Second Sino-Japanese war.
7×64mm The 7×64mm (also unofficially known as the 7×64mm Brenneke, though its designer's name officially never was added as a part of this cartridge name) is a rimless bottlenecked centerfire cartridge developed for hunting. As is customary in European cartridges the 7 denotes the 7 mm bullet caliber and the 64 denotes the 64 mm case length. The 7×64mm is a popular hunting cartridge in Central Europe and can, due to its 11.95 mm case head diameter and 84 mm overall length, easily be chambered in Mauser 98 bolt action rifles that were then standard issue in the German military.
