Description

I Saved this C96 that was being stored in a sock in a basement... 

Good news is i caught the rust before it went too far. Fleckling .. but the price was right and the bore is in great shape. Matching down to the grips.  Internals Look New. .30 Mauser. Early 1920s Production - Post War -1920s-1930 production were Known as the "Bolo" model, slightly smaller frame than the wartime / prewar C96 due to the Treaty of Versailles restrictions.  

Medals are WW1 German / Austria-hungary
