Model 1900 & WWII

Hi Greg,
I'm no authority on this but;
I do not believe that you will find any official use of a 1900 model in Military Use in WW-1 or WW-2 in as much as the P-08 was the official model in Military Use.
There may be some cases where the "Home Guard" may have used that old of a "Relic" in the last desperate days of resisting the Allied Forces".
For instance I am the proud Owner of a Model 98 Sporting Rifle that was used effectively by a Woman Sniper in Remagen, and was removed from her dead hand by Squad Leader William Dunn, who lost two of his best friends to this WomanÃ¢??s "Sniper Skills".
So as You can see Ã¢??Anything Can Happen In The Time of War and Usually Will !
