Trials were undertaken in 1908 -10 with modified bullets and rifles embodying a
strengthened Vogelsang Rebholz action. Apart from the tangent sight, these guns
resembled their predecessors externally though, once dismantled, three large holes
were found to be bored through the bolt sleeve to reduce weight.

The perfected Gewehr 11 was formally approved on January 10 1913 together with
adaptations of several earlier weapons. The new guns had a strengthened action - a
hold-open to signify an empty magazine - a pistol-grip stock and an improved rear
sight.

Manufactured 1913-1919 at Eidgenoessische Waffenfabrik Bern..
