1914 mauser question

You have what is identified as a Standard Postwar Commercial 1914. There were about 150,000 of this variation made and many were exported to the USA in the 1920's and 1930's. The serial number or a partial serial number should be located on the left side of the slide, the rear of the frame and on the side of the barrel strap that the take down rod goes through. The original finish is rust blue with fire blued small parts. Neat pistol and a nice find for you.
