Wink Something to clarify about Mauser Parabellum.

Hello guys,
I would like to point out your attention about a few points to be clarified about Mauser Parabellum .

The first point is related to the transition serial number from the 29/70 model to the 06/73 in .30 Luger caliber. Our friend Gerben has a 1972-and-a-half variation ( a sort of transitional model ) with serial number 10.004187. A 29/70 model with serial number 10.004063 is currently for sale on the Forum. Therefore the transition is placed somewhere between 4063 and 4187. Now the questions:
Do you have some 29/70 or 06/73 (.30 Luger) with serial number that falls in this range?
Do you have a 29/70 model (.30 Luger) with serial number greater than 10.004187? In this case the 29/70 model was still produced together with the 06/73 model for a while.

The second point is related to the amount of Mauser Parabellum produced in .30 Luger. I have seen a late production numbered 10.005647 and dated 1986. I guess this pistol belonging to the real last production. Do you have pistols with serial number grater than this one? I guess that the production of commercial .30 calibers was around 5000 pistols. Do you have information about this point?

The last point is related to the early production. In another topic (http://forum.lugerforum.com/showthre...threadid=11862), we have already analyzed the first production. We highlighted that the first 50 pistols (prototypes) in caliber .30 Luger have a particular configuration, different from the normal production. I have bought one of this, the number 19 (10.00.10019). Do you have notice about the other 49?


Any information about the above points is really appreciated.

Ciao
Mauro
