Model 1914 Pistol / Re: New addition, 1920 marked and police marked 1914
« on: May 11, 2013, 07:03:01 AM »
If a gun has to cross a border over here, one can expect to wait for approx. 3 months at least nowadays.
Government funding cutbacks on all levels means there is now just 1 guy handling all the paperwork for gun imports and exports over here. So it takes a minimum of 6 weeks to get the import permit, then the seller needs to obtain his export permit, which also differs from location to location.

The model 66 rifles and probably the modern rifles should have a section of their own as well, I guess?

They did stop hollowing out the front area eventually. Perhaps the two are related?

That is correct. All these pistols carry Hungarian proof markings, showing they were made and test fired in Hungary.

Non Gun Items / Re: Mauser calculator
« on: May 06, 2013, 09:07:07 PM »
Yes, that old website gave me the first experience with the museum. A pity they took it offline. Some changes were made to the general lay-out. Benefactors like H&K and Feinwerkbau are getting a bit more space.

Non Gun Items / Mauser calculator
« on: May 05, 2013, 09:17:43 AM »
This machine will go to the Oberndorf Weapons Museum in a few months.
Mauser entered the business machine / calculator business in the late 1920s in order to find some extra revenue during the depression years. They were quite succesful and produced calculators, both manually and electrically operated until the war.
This particular example is fully complete and operational.

Mauser Lugers / Mauser Banner / Military mix
« on: May 05, 2013, 09:13:32 AM »
This is a 1941 Mauser P08 which received a, correctly numbered, Mauser Banner toggle rather than the normal military toggle.
Shown together with a wartime, uncoded(!), DWM ammunition box. Both show that there were commercial variations on the military theme available during the war.

It will take quite a bit of time before it gets here and I can examine it more closely. But I will report back when it is here.

I agree to a certain point. What makes it collectible to me is the fact that, until now, it is the last pistol produced to bear the Mauser trade mark. It marks the end of an era.

Hi,
I purchased HSc 950381 from the last Hermann-Historica auction. WaA135 proofed.

Mauser Lugers / Preseries Mauser Parabellum
« on: April 30, 2013, 08:31:15 AM »
This Mauser Parabellum was assembled using pre-production parts.
Note the smooth, 06/29-style takedown lever and safety catch and the straight receiver. The pistol has no serial number or any proof markings and was probably assembled as a drawing test verification by Mauser.
