caption_attribution_description: English: Serbian Cadets with M1878/80 Serbian Mauser
context_page_description: In 1880, Serbian Major Kosta "Koka" Milovanović developed an updated version of the Mauser Model 1871, still single-shot, but chambered in its unique 10.15×63R caliber. It had unique additions in that it had a bolt guide and the "progressive rifling" that was developed by Koka. The Kingdom of Serbia adopted the rifle in 1881. It was designated Serbian Model 1878/80, also known as Mauser-Koka, Mauser-Milovanović, and known in Serbian as Kokinka. The grooves reduced in diameter from breech to muzzle. The muzzle velocity of the Mauser-Milanović was 1,680 feet per second. It saw first combat in the Serbo-Bulgarian War. Approximately 110,000 Mauser-Milovanović rifles entered the Serbian arsenal. It was further developed in 1907.
