Postino, there is a 7.63 Mannlicher and a 7.65 Mannlicker, one having a straight case and the other having one identical to the Mauser/Tokarev case. It is DWM 497 I believe. I may have switched the nominal caliber number.

jonnyc - If you have the data sheet for that, please post it - I'd like to add it to my files.
My "Pistols Of The World" shows the Mannlicher model 1903 as using the 7.63 bottleneck cartridge; 1250 ft/sec velocity as opposed to the Mauser 1450 ft/sec. (Ugly looking pistol)...
