[sigman2]

Can anyone point me to a site where I can determine the manufacture dates of 1891 and 1909 Argentine Mausers?

Thanks

I don't know of any source of actual production dates, but if it is close enough the Model 1891 contract should have been completed in 1891 or 1892, the M1909 contract that year or the next year. The German arms factories were very efficient and those were not big contracts.
