The Mauser HSc is a 7.65mm pistol made in Nazi Germany during World War II at Mauser's Oberndorf factory (see pages 35 to 40 of Axis pistols by Still). The designation HSc stood for Hahn Selbstspanner ("self-cocking hammer") Pistole, third and final design "C". The German Army began HSc procurement with an initial order in early 1941 & production ended with the capture of the Oberndorf area by Allied troops in late April 1945.
