The Mauser 1914 and HSc represent different generations of design. So you really need one of each
While the 1914 in its iterations approximately parallels the Luger from pre-WW I until WW II, the HSc (like PP/PPK) extends from its design in early WW II to really being a modern post-war pistol being produced until the late 1970s.
I am more interested in the 1914. Like the Luger, you find it in different variants and with markings denoting Imperial military, Weimar-era police, and early Nazi military (Kriegsmarine’s Model 1934 iteration).
If I were after a carry gun in that category, I would only consider the HSc, however. I find especially its grip ergonomics superior, also to the Walthers.
Of the two, I currently have only a Model 1914 manufactured in 1919.
