Peter Paul was conscripted in 1859 as an artilleryman at the Ludwigsburg arsenal, where he worked as a gunsmith. Another son, Franz Mauser, travelled to America in 1853 with his sister and worked at E. The factory was built in an Augustinian cloister, a stout building ideal for arms production. Their father, Franz Andreas Mauser, was a gunsmith at the Württemberg Royal Armory. His brother Wilhelm was four years older. Peter Paul Mauser, often referred to as Paul Mauser, was born on 27 June 1838, in Oberndorf am Neckar, Württemberg. The Mauser name has historically also been licensed by other companies on intermittent occasions. Mauser Jagdwaffen continues making bolt-action guns as a subsidiary of SIG Sauer.
In 1995 the company became a subsidiary of Rheinmetall called Mauser-Werke Oberndorf Waffensysteme GmbH, before being acquired by Lüke & Ortmeier Group in 2000.Ī division of the original company, Mauser Jagdwaffen GmbH, was split off and, in 2000, sold to Luke & Ortmeier Group. They continued to make sporting and hunting rifles in the late 20th century. Since the late 19th and early 20th centuries, military Mauser designs were also exported and licensed to a number of countries, as well as being a popular civilian firearm. These designs were built for the German armed forces. Mauser is a German arms manufacturer of a line of bolt-action weapons and semi-automatic pistols since the 1870s.
