This video delves into the history and design of the Stamm-Saurer Model 1907, a Swiss straight-pull bolt-action rifle. Developed by Hans Stamm for Saurer, an automotive company venturing into firearms, the rifle was intended to compete in Swiss military trials. Despite facing no technical issues, it was ultimately outcompeted by a more established design from WF Bern. The video discusses Saurer's unsuccessful attempts at domestic adoption and international sales, further hampered by the outbreak of World War I. The presenter expresses gratitude to the Swiss Shooting Museum for access to rare examples of the rifle.
