When did the end come for producing the .30 cal. Luger?
Manufacture and year if known.
Many thanks,
Bill

As far as Mauser goes, Banner Commercials up to 1940 or so. Postwar Mauser would be the Interarms models up to around the mid 70's. I would have to look in the Mauser Parabellum book to say for sure on these.

I think I read somewhere that the swiss were still making them post WW2, not sure about dates.

I've read that the Swiss model 29 in 30 Luger was produced until 1947. KW
