Title: Mauser Hsc non marked Interarms
Post by: huslerdude on January 20, 2017, 11:16:19 AM

Hi, New to this forum. I'l looking to buy a Mauser Hsc in .380, but do not want the import stamp on the slide. What year did they start putting the import mark on the slide?

Welcome huslerdude!  That marking you mention is on all of the New Models from the start of production in 1968 until the final run in 1977.  It really isn't an Import Mark though.  Import Markings are usually stamped on the Frame in an inconspicuous location by the actual Importer with the name of their company and location.

Thank you for the reply Warbird, I now have an idea as to what to look for with my future purchase.
