I've also read this, but find it hard to believe that Mauser would do such a thing (buy something sight unseen and then claim that is was worthless). What would the old German Professor Doktors say about doing something foolish like that.

If this were true, it seems strange that their product of the early 70s looked so much like a Swiss 29.
