Why? Mauser claimed they used "finest qualities of steel" on M1930. I assumed they also used same steel on their other products.. no?

This extreme durability is assured by the uses of the finest qualities of steel, each specially adapted to the purpose of the particular part"

Finest steel in Mauser.
