Hi,

I want to make an additional remark here, it seems 'fantomark' is discussing a restoration done by Mauser themselves and yes, they exist.

Mauser themselves refurbished original Mauser pistols during the last years of the existance of their pistol producing branch in Oberdorf during the late 1990s (1997 - 1999).

These 'original' Mauser redo's are pretty rare and not to be confused with your average restoration offered by regular gunsmiths, etc...

These real Mauser restorations should be viewed in the same area as the post war Mauser Parabellums, perhaps a little bit higher.
