Hi Lyn,
Please find hereafter some information that can help you.
The first Parabellum in caliber .30 Luger is numbered 10.001001. According to my data base the production ends around 1986/1987. The serial number of the last production is around 10.006000. Therefore the total number of Mauser Parabellum in .30 Luger should be around 5000 items. Now the production of the model 06/73 starts around the number 10.004000. For a while Mauser made both models. Therefore the total number of 06/73 in caliber .30 Luger should be around 2000 items.
My data base is not very populated so far and also most of the pistols have been exported into USA without the date of production stamped.
I really encourage all the Luger Forum friends that own a Mauser Parabellum to share the serial number and the date of production.
Have fun.
Cheers,
Mauro
