I've sure enjoyed lurking here and learning from this forum. You guys know your firearms.

I've had an Interarms Mauser Parabellum for about twenty years. Just the pistol and one correct magazine, no box or anything else. Guy I bought it from said his wife got mad and through a bunch of pistol boxes away. 9mm, six inch barrel, Swiss style frame. Dark rich blue/black finish. Left side has oval marking of FBM, Mauser Parabellum, 9mm Luger. Right side has INTERARMS, ALEXANDRIA VIRGINIA, high serial 11.00297x, low serial 11.00.297x. Above grip safety there is Made in Germany. Toggle has Original Mauser (banner). Chamber has the American eagle marking. Top of barrel has 9mm Luger marking and what looks like a tiny oval marking of FBM. Don't have a digital camera, so no pic, just a word description.

Would someone know about what year this pistol was manufactured? Any other information would be appreciated.

This is a pistol that I shoot once in a while. It is a pleasure to shoot.
