Hello Ron,
You are right; it is odd that the Ã¢??00 model is described in a 1909 manual.
I can provide you another very unusual example. Please look at the following scans.

It is extracted from a 1919 book for the German Field Artillery. This book, now in my collection, was used for Artillery Officers and NCOs training. Again the Parabellum described is the Ã¢??00 model.
It is absolutely unusual that a training book doesnÃ¢??t describe the correct model.
Let me know your opinion.
Ciao
Mauro
