[2] The main producer in Germany was Deutsche Waffen und Munitionsfabriken that delivered 200,000 rifles[3] while around 85,000 rifles[2] were manufactured by the Fabrica Militar de Armas Portatiles, governmental plants in Rosario and Santa Fe.

[5] Some Argentine Mauser 1909 rifles and carbines without crests were sold to Paraguay during the Chaco War.

They were closer copies of the Gewehr 98, including the Lange Visier sight.

[8] Aside from the caliber, the only differences were the larger receiver ring, the 5 mm (0.20 in) shorter breech, the slightly modified strip guide to use older Model 1891 strips, the longer hammer, the aspheric shape of the bolt handle and the Peruvian markings.

[11] After 1945, the Mauser 1909s were replaced by American weapons and were sold in the civilian market in the 1960s, a few being kept as ceremonial rifles.
