Model 1910 Pistol / Re: Introduction

« on: March 08, 2023, 08:39:27 AM »

Welcome to the forum. Your 1910/14 Mauser was made in 1925. It is one of the most common variations of the .25 caliber pocket model. Feeding problems are usually due to the ammo, magazine or springs. Regards,

I have heard of these grips though this is the first pair I have seen outside of books. I believe them to be original because I have not heard of them being re-produced. These may of been made by a company other than Mauser as plastic or Bakelite is a specialty to manufacture. Regards,

It sounds like a mis-matched example. I would need to see some pictures to provide an estimate of value. Regards,

When you say, new clip, is it an aftermarket magazine? the problem you describe is usually the feed lips of the magazine. Aftermarket magazines are known to have feeding problems. If you can find an original magazine in good condition they usually do not have issues. Regards,

All WWII HSCs were in .32 caliber. Any vintage Mauser pistol in .380 would be some kind of prototype. Regards,

General Mauser Rifle Questions / Re: Buffalo Bill’s Amberg Model 71? For real?

« on: July 15, 2022, 07:36:35 AM »

Apparently not. I am sure someone might be interested as you are. I am sure Bill Cody was gifted all sorts of arms during the tour of the Wild West show along with firearm he was know to have owned. Possibly he was gifted this in Europe. There is the Buffalo Bill Museum that may be able to authenticate this particular rifle to Bill. Without that no collector is going to pay for a story and the certificate accompanying the auction is not sufficient provenance to effect the price. Regards,
