06/29 is the model designation of the last Swiss luger, on which the Mauser Parabellum is based.
The first Mauser Parabellum was called the 29/70, the P08 style the 06/73. The P08 style commemoratives had their grip safeties modified so they were hidden under the left side grip and non-functional. But the remains are there. The grip safety itself was needed to get the pistol through the import regulations in the US. The grip safety was shortened at the request of Interarms to give the pistol more of a 1906 look and less of a Swiss one. |
