C96 PISTOL, GERMANY 1896 1024, Non-functional replica

Reproduction of a C96 Mauser pistol, made of metal with imitation wood plastic grips, with simulated loading and firing mechanism.

Within the wide range of handguns, the C-96 has the honor of bearing the name of “the classic”, also known as the "Broomhandle". It was a semi-automatic pistol produced in Germany from 1896 to 1937, created by the brilliant Peter Paul Mauser. This semi-automatic pistol, with more than a century of history, has an extremely functional and practical design that has led it to be recognized as one of the best weapons in the world.

The German army received over 100,000 units, which were used during World War I, which featured close-range trench fighting. Communist Russia acquired large numbers of the C-96, a weapon that eventually received the nickname “Bolo-Mauser” – the Mauser of the Bolsheviks. When World War II began in 1939, the C-96 was still in service.

Although no country recognized it as a standard weapon, it was used in all war events that occurred in the first half of the 20th century.

It is manufactured by Denix in Spain with quality metal.
