Don, I agree with your comments. The book calls what Vlim refers to as the 06/29, the 29/70.

There was an 06/72 Transitional model that used the 06/73 frame and 29/70 small parts including the early style front sight. About 2500 were made between October, 1972 and April, 1973; approximately 500 in .30 caliber and 2000 in 9mm.

The book calls the 06/73 the "compromise model" as it was what Interarms and Mauser finally agreed upon.
