This is correct. What belongs to Mauser in terms of intellectual property is the staggered internal box magazine that is loaded with stripper clips.
Does anybody know if Mauser played a role in the development of the modern spitzer bullet version of the 7.92x57 that came out in 1905?
I am pretty sure it was designed by a Gewehr-Prüfungskommission (G.P.K.) which stands basically for a commission (much like how the original Patrone 88 and commission 88 rifle was designed). I don't know who was part of it, however. I am not sure how the last version was designed (the 198grn at 2400ft/sec), but Mauser was dead by that point so he couldn't have played a part there.
