@HLebooks thanks,i'll check that out

[yf2sv]

i have one that my grandfather brought back from france. the story he told me was he found it on a SS officer, along with the Luger. the white grips are interesting. i believe it was never a military weapon but a very popular police pistol for the time. have you shot it yet how the accuracy? mine is a little tack driver

[walter00556]

@yf2sv yup,i've shot it a bit and it seems to hit right where you want it to.in fact,it shoots straighter tha some "high end" pistols i've owned.

[killerbydayornight]

if its a mauser it aint cheap

[walter00556]

@killerbydayornight yeah, you're right.i should have said 'inexpensive' . it's very well built.

i found one in my wifes grandparents old farm house.its mint and found shells to.only put one shot through it. its a 1910 i think

[Z0mb3hHunt3r]

@sovietkid96 the 1914 is a variant of the 1910. 7.65mm, which equates to .32 caliber.

[walter00556]

@sovietkid96 thanks i will.i know it's already beat and not worth much, but it's working history to me.

I saw one of those about 20 years ago at a local shop with about 80% of the blue still on it. Think he wanted $200 for it back then. The Mauser .25 was a civilian pocket pistol imported into the US way back in the 20s but they lost out to better and smaller designs that were coming out from Colt and Remington, if memory serves me, this Mauser also came in .32ACP, one of the reasons it was so big. The Colt Pocket hammerless .32 auto killed this gun in the market.
