Model 1914 Pistol / Shenanigans with grips and pistols

« on: July 20, 2019, 11:15:42 PM »

Slightly discouraging to see, but I think it's underhanded. Pre98 Has changed the grips from one late 1914 to a different late 1914. I emailed them asking what the story was. No reply so far

If it is acid etched rather than engraved is it still possible to be a factory option?

I saw this on Armslist, not my cup of tea but I am curious what people's opinions on it are. https://www.armslist.com/posts/8838096/minneapolis-minnesota-handguns-for-sale--mauser-factory-engraved-and-gold-appointed-mauser-hsc--boxed--unfired

Looks like a nice one, congrats. Do you think you will shoot it?

With another higher priority pistol coming along I will have to wait and see if it remains unsold long enough for me to get the funds

This is a variation I really like. I have a opportunity to purchase one for $350. It has bluing loss but doesn't appear to have pitting. Aftermarket grips. I already have two but with it being somewhat uncommon I am very tempted to purchase it anyway. So any opinions on whether I should save my money or purchase?

Very Nice Dreyse as well. It appears you have good taste in handguns. They can get very addictive

That is a really nice looking 1914 police gun. I was hoping people were not going to notice the police markings and that I was going to be able to snag it but unfortunately for me several others did notice. Congrats

I never thought I would focus on police marked 1914s but they certainly are starting to accumulate in my safe.

Model 1914 Pistol / 1914 Police Issued

« on: January 15, 2019, 08:02:53 PM »

it has been pretty dead in here lately so I thought I would liven it up. I acquired this pistol last Spring.
 It has canceled police markings which I believe are type 1 markings to Schneidemuhl district which was then  subsequently transferred to the district of Gumbinnen with type 2 markings.

if anyone has a different idea please feel free to share it.


sorry for the double post, my internet was acting funny

That is neat. That is actually a goal of mine.e for collecting is to get a pistol that has been pictures In a reference book. Closest I've come so far is I have one that is listed by serial number as a observed example
