Mauro,

According to THE MAUSER PARABELLUM by Francis C. Allen:

"Interarms requested Mauser to supply 100 Cutaways. These were fitted with either 4 inch or 6 inch barrels. All of these initial cutaways were based on the Swiss Model but at a later date some P08 Models were made and a few were satin chrome plated."

The book indicates that they were made in both 7.65 & 9 mm, but doesn't say how many of each. It also indicates that some were marked "Safe" and some were marked "Gesichert".
