Burgess,
I just purchased a 1910 with a higher serial number than my 1910/34...is that unusual or is it just an overlap?I thought 1910's stopped in '34..Thank you..
-
What are the serial numbers? Is the slide marking "MAUSER WERKE....." on both? Is the grip straight or curved? You will have to provide a lot more information and define what you are calling a 1910 and 1910/34.

.Both are marked Mauser Werke etc.419511 is the 10/34 with curved black plastic grip; 419759 straight black plastic grips also has DRUP on right side beside cal designation...

I will have to look at my data to see where these fall in the production change. There is usually some overlap in production changes and the change over from straight to curved grip is. I know there is overlap in the .32 caliber models.

Thank you Burgess..please let me know..

I had both your numbers in my data. I noted that the higher one with the straight grip is the highest number recorded and could be a replacement. (gap between next highest straight grip is 6000 less next is 14000 less) The curved grip starts at a much lower number but a group with the straight grip does overlap with the earliest curve grip.

Burgess,
Thank you..what do you mean by replacement?
-
I mean that it is possible that your pistol left the factory with a 34 style curved grip that was later replaced with an earlier straight back grip.
