Biff,

The Mauser Parabellum is based on the Swiss 06/29 design. If an Erma set fits a Mauser Parabellum it will fit an 06/29. That was the logic behind my reasoning.

The 1900s were pretty much obsolete guns in the 1930s already, so I can understand why Erma didn't bother making one specifically for the 1900 model. According to the original 1930s manual, the 'Model 30' insert set was available for both 9mm and .30 luger. It doesn't say whether it was a 'one size fits all' design, but they don't mention separate prices and stock numbers for the sets, so my guess is that the conversion kit should work in both sets.
