This is the early post war set, produced by Erma for Interarms. It would be followed up by the slightly improved SE-08/2 in the 1970s and 1980s.

Mauser tried to purchase Erma in the 1970s, as it would have allowed them easy access to a working .22lr system for their own Parabellum pistols. Erma has been hovering on the edge of bankruptcy for many years, so Mauser was speculating on that.

Ironically, Erma survived longer than Mauser's pistol branch, so the scheme was never carried out

It would be a great set to team up with a post war Interarms Parabellum. I'd buy it for $500 without blinking.
