This video delves into the Mauser M80SA, revealing its surprising Hungarian origin and its direct lineage to the Browning High Power.

FEG, already licensed to produce High Power copies, manufactured the M80 for Mauser from 1990-1995. The video notes the omission of the magazine safety and discusses the limited production run and the gun's poor sales, attributing it to an outdated design and the diminished value of the Mauser branding at the time.
