Default Mauser Parabellum

Their quality control measures were so good, that they managed to skip the in-the-white assembly alltogether. In the old days, this was needed to match all small parts together, making final adjustments before finishing the pistol.

You are probbly right about the Germans in the 1970. Why Cummings didn't take a byf 41 to Japan, I dont know.

Please comment on the new Krieghoff Luger.
