There is no use discussing the beauty or ethics of something. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. But you can try to look upon the design and history with a somewhat less biased and more objective approach. Heck, even August Weiss liked the idea and the concept of the 1970s version. So in the end, the 1970's Parabellum is just that: A Parabellum, made by Mauser in the 1970s.

Hissoldier: you may find that fitting P08 grips to a Mauser Parabellum will be a bit of a challenge.
Dear Friend:

You are one of our most technically gifted and knowledgable members, and of course, my opinions do not reflect on your ability or knowledge of the facts and subject matter.

My opinions are mine, of course, but I feel that many familiar with the subject matter may agree with them.

In a world of generally accepted mediocrity, the original design stands out as a testament to engineering genius, not to be tampered with by amateurs to follow in subsequent generations.

When I hold or fire a Mauser Parabellum, the thought that goes through my mind, on every occasion, is just how odd the pistol feels in my hand compared to the original design, that's it, plain and simple.

With respect,

Sieger
