Product Description
This INERT Mauser 8x57mm FMJ round, stamped with the headstamp “P207” and produced by Metallwerk Odertal GmbH in Odertal, Germany, is a significant and highly collectible piece of military ammunition history. Dated 1937, this round represents a pivotal time during the lead-up to World War II when the Mauser 8x57mm (also known as the 7.92x57mm) was one of the primary cartridges used by the German military.
The 8x57mm Mauser, developed in the early 1900s, was widely used in German bolt-action rifles, machine guns, and other firearms during both World Wars. This particular round features a full metal jacket (FMJ) projectile designed for long-range accuracy and effective performance in combat. Its military-grade brass casing is marked with the “P207” code, which identifies Metallwerk Odertal GmbH as the manufacturer, providing a clear connection to its production during the 1930s.
This round is fully deactivated, containing no live primer, propellant, or explosive components, making it safe for handling, display, and collection. The round is in excellent condition for its age, with clearly legible markings and a well-preserved brass casing, providing valuable insight into the manufacturing techniques and quality control of ammunition during the pre-World War II era.
Ideal for military historians, collectors of World War II-era ammunition, and enthusiasts of German firearm history, the INERT Mauser 8x57mm FMJ round serves as a fascinating example of wartime military armaments. Whether displayed as a historical artifact or studied for its craftsmanship, this piece offers a tangible link to the past.
