Maus and Mauser 2mm Compatibility Guide
Maus and Mauser are separate compatibility values in The Pinfire catalog. The similar names can cause incorrect orders, so identify the exact model before selecting cartridges, caps, balls or accessories.
Do not treat the names as interchangeable
The catalog includes a Maus Germany 2 mm model and a Mauser C96 collector model. A product tagged for Maus is not automatically confirmed for Mauser, and a Mauser-specific item is not automatically suitable for Maus. Use the exact Compatible Models value on the product page.
Identification checklist
- Read the full product name and any markings on the collector piece.
- Compare the overall profile with the product photographs.
- Check whether the store page identifies the model as Maus or Mauser.
- Note the listed caliber/format and included items.
- Match every separate purchase against the same model name.
Compatibility matrix
| Your model | What the accessory page must show |
|---|---|
| Maus | "Maus" in Compatible Models, plus the matching caliber/format. A multi-model product may include Berloque, Xythos and Maus. |
| Mauser | "Mauser" in Compatible Models. Do not use "Maus" as a substitute when Mauser is not listed. |
| Unidentified vintage piece | Do not order by appearance alone. Send support clear photographs of the item and its markings for a manual check. |
Cartridges, balls and mixed packs
Some 2 mm consumable listings support several named models, while others are model-specific. Read the Compatibility chips and the package contents together. A combined offer may contain different components and quantities; confirm that each required component is listed for your model.
When the catalog data is incomplete
Compatibility support is a fallback, not a replacement for product data. If the product page does not clearly identify Maus or Mauser, send the product URL, the name shown on your item and a clear photo through WhatsApp. The team can then compare it with the catalog record before you place the order.
Responsible use: these are adult collector items. Use only components explicitly documented for the exact model, and follow the product documentation and local requirements.
