Default Mauser lines

Line one which passed from Lowe/DWM to Mauser was scrapped shortly after WWII.

When Mauser planned to resume production in the 70's they bought the Swiss line. It is my understanding that they found it to be in such poor condition that most of the machinery and tooling was scrapped. Hence almost all of the 70's Mauser line was new equipment.
