    Mauser 6.35 (have questions)

    I'm looking for help with a few questions I have about this Mauser 6.35 as I am not a firearms specialist. The gun has matching numbers which are 276829 and has the clip which does not appear to be numbered.

    - Can anyone tell me if this is war time production?

    - Is this a German military or civilian gun?

    - Can anyone tell me what the lever and button are for on the left side of the gun? I was under the impression that the lever was the slide release and the button was for the clip release, but that does not appear to be the case.

    - I paid $60 for this gun. Is anyone willing to state an approximate value of this piece? You can PM me if you don't feel comfortable expressing your opinion on the thread.

    thanks for your comments.

      This is a Mauser 1914 modell.

      Not so special but it can be served in WWII as a private pistol. Who knows.
      Also called a pocket pistol.

      This kind of pistols have they own history.

      The value of this one ? I would say 500$

      Best regards

            I agree, and it is commercial pistol.

              I just noticed another feature on the gun, not sure if it means anything or not, but there are additional markings on the gun. They appear to be two crowns above the letter "U". Can anyone tell me the meaning of these markings and if it would affect the value? Thanks.

                Does it hace a CIRCLE WITH A TRIANGLE IN THE CiRCLE under the firing pin hole in the pack of the pistol?

                  yes, there is a triangle in a circle below the firing pin on the rear of the gun, as you described. I didn't notice that before either. Can you tell me what that marking would mean along with the others?

                  Also, I did a little research on line and is it fair to assume that my pistol is a model 14 with a manufacture date between 1919 and 1934? I say this because I had read that my serial number falls in this time frame.

                    I agree with previous comment. Stamped word "GERMANY" indicates import gun. Nicepistol by the way.

                      I believe the triangle circle to be a Portuguese export contract. I owned one a while back.

                          When the gun is empty after firing , the top lever holds the slide open, then the button releases the clip, then when loaded clip is added to the gun and all the way in, the lever releases the slide to load the next round. I have a book here somewhere on this pistol explaining every model. Cant find it at the moment.

                          I believe the gun in the present condition is not worth but half of the previous estimate. (if that) condition is everything, and if it has accessories also adds to the value. May have started as a military gun, then was exported , I recall seeing these by the barrel full as a kid in hardware stores. That would be around 1959- 60.

                            The magazine-not clip- is released by the knob on the bottom of the grip.

                            The button and lever on the frame are the safety and safety lock.

                            These wear and make the pistol very dangerous to carry with a chambered round. Subsequently, these are the hardest replacements to find.

                            The function is unusual as when the slide is locked back, one withdraws the magazine-not clip- and pulls the slide to the rear releasing it and it slides shut.

                            Tjhere is no simple slide release lever or button.

                              A commercial Mauser 1910 in that condition would retail around $50-$75 down here. A store would pay you perhaps a $10 for it.
