Other than the 4" and 6'' barrels and 9mm and .30 cal what Luger variations did Mauser produce in the 70's? Most of the ones I have seen on GB for sale are grip safety types referred to as the Swiss style. Were any P08 style produced?

Yes
There is a section here on the forum called post war, many postings about them. Also a book just on them. . .

Also, as Gerben will possibly point out, there were transition models of the 06/73(?), with different profiles of the toggle ramps, and use of the 29/70's Swiss style safety lever, takedown lever, and side plate! There is a post about this in the "post war" section.
