Hello @Havsjö:
From the source "Mauser inter-wars efforts had yielded the Standard Modell in 1924. Samples were sent to China, and, at the ... Conference in 1932, the 7.92mm Mauser was chosen". To me, it means that Mauser 1924s were sent to China before 1932. And, by reading the other sources, I understood that the Mauser M1924 was produced in small quantities before the 1933 "mass-production". I may be wrong.--Le Petit Chat (talk) 17:13, 22 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
@Le Petit Chat:Samples would probably have been sent from some small scale production for them to decide to adopt in 1932, but that page does not say that it was in 1924 that they came to China. I btw thought that it was designed in 1924 but wasnt produced until 1933, hence why it is sometimes called "model 1933".-Havsjö (talk) 17:55, 22 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
According to Ball, M1924s were bought by Bolivia in the 1920s. So many small-scale contracts...--Le Petit Chat (talk) 18:08, 22 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
