Question: What was the commonly used name for the rifle that was replaced by the Gewehr 98?
Context: The Type 88, sometimes known as "Hanyang 88", is a Chinese-made bolt-action rifle, based on the German Gewehr 88.  It was adopted by the Qing Dynasty towards the end of the 19th century and was a standard Chinese rifle, being used by multiple factions and formations, until the end of the Chinese Civil War.  The name of the rifle is derived from Hanyang Arsenal, the main factory that produced this rifle.  The rifle was due to be replaced as the standard Chinese rifle by the Chiang Kai-Shek rifle.  However, manufacture of the new rifle never managed to match demand, and the Type 88 continued to be manufactured and to equip the National Revolutionary Army during the Second Sino-Japanese War. The Gewehr 98 (abbreviated G98, Gew 98 or M98) is a German bolt-action Mauser rifle firing cartridges from a 5-round internal clip-loaded magazine that was the German service rifle from 1898 to 1935, when it was replaced by the Karabiner 98k.  The Gewehr 98 action, using stripper clip loading with the powerful 7.92×57mm Mauser cartridge, introduced advanced infantry weapon features rapidly adopted in the Anglo-American Pattern 1914 Enfield/M1917 Enfield and the Japanese Arisaka Type 38/Type 99.  The Gewehr 98 replaced the earlier Gewehr 1888 rifle as the German service rifle, first saw combat in the Boxer Rebellion, and was the main German infantry service rifle of World War I.  The Gewehr 98 saw further military use by the Ottoman Empire and Nationalist Spain.  Many have been converted to sporting use. The vz.  24 rifle is a bolt-action carbine designed and produced in Czechoslovakia from 1924 to 1942.  It was developed from the Mauser Gewehr 98 line, and features a very similar bolt design.  The rifle was designed in Czechoslovakia shortly after World War I, to replace the Vz.  98/22, featuring a 600 mm (23.6") barrel which was shorter and considered more handy than the 150 mm (5.9") -longer Gewehr 98.  The carbine followed a similar trend in weapon design at the time, that a short rifle gave away little in ballistic efficiency at combat ranges, but was easier to handle on account of its shorter length. The Gewehr 88 (commonly called the Model 1888 commission rifle) was a late 19th-century German bolt action rifle, adopted in 1888. The Vz.  98/22 is a Czechoslovakian-designed, full-sized, bolt-action rifle, designed and produced in Czechoslovakia.  It replaced the Gewehr 98 rifles purchased from Germany after the Treaty of Versailles.  The rifles were quickly replaced by the shorter Vz.  24, and were sold to various other nations, most notably Iran and Turkey, where they remained in service to World War II era and beyond. Carcano is the frequently used name for a series of Italian bolt-action, magazine-fed, repeating military rifles and carbines. Introduced in 1891, this rifle was chambered for the rimless 6.5×52mm Carcano cartridge ("Cartuccia Modello 1895").  It was developed by the chief technician Salvatore Carcano at the Turin Army Arsenal in 1890 and called the Modello (model) 91 or simply M91.  Successively replacing the previous Vetterli-Vitali rifles and carbines in 10.35×47mmR, it was produced from 1892 to 1945.  The M91 was used in both rifle ("fucile") and shorter-barreled carbine ("moschetto") form by most Italian troops during the First World War and by Italian and some German forces during the Second World War.  The rifle was also used during the Winter War by Finland, and again by regular and irregular forces in Syria, Libya, Tunisia, and Algeria during various postwar conflicts in those countries. Karabin wzor 98a (Kb wz.98a) was a Polish derivative of the German Gewehr 98 bolt-action rifle. The Hanyang M1935 bayonet is a bayonet used on the Chinese Chiang Kai-Shek rifle.  It is based on the Mauser S84/98 III bayonet used on German Gewehr 98 rifles and derivatives. The M24 series is a line of Mauser Gewehr 98 pattern bolt-action battle rifles produced for use by the Yugoslavian military.  They are similar to the Czech vz.  24 rifle, featuring open sights, 8×57mm IS chambering, carbine-length barrels, hardwood stocks, and straight bolt handles.  All M24 series weapons are designed to accept the M-24/48 pattern bayonet. The Mauser–Vergueiro was a bolt-action rifle, designed in 1904 by José Alberto Vergueiro, an infantry officer of the Portuguese Army, and manufactured by Deutsche Waffen und Munitionsfabriken (DWM).  It was developed from the Mauser 98 rifle with the introduction of a new bolt system derived from the Gewehr 1888 and Mannlicher–Schönauer.  Outside Portugal, the weapon was also known as the Portuguese Mauser.  It used the 6.5×58mm Vergueiro, a cartridge developed specially for it.
