IN 95% ORIGNAL CONDITION, AND ALL MATCHING , WE HAVE A NICE SOLID MAUSER C96 BROOMHANDLE IN 7.63 MAUSER. THE PISTOL IS GERMAN WW1 IMPERIAL PROOFED. THIS IS THE FAMOUS C96 BROOMHANDLE PISTOL AND THESE WERE WIDELY USED BY MACHINE GUN CREWS TO PROTECT THE GUNS AT CLOSE QUARTERS AND ALSO BY STORM TROOPS. IN THE DAYS BEFORE VIABLE SUBMACHINE GUNS THIS WAS THE CLOSE QUARTER WEAPON OF CHOICE. WE DO NOT GET TOO MANY BROOMHANDLES IN BECAUSE MOST OF WHAT IS OUT THERE IS JUNK, ALL THE GOOD ONES ARE IN COLLECTIONS. THESE ARE NOT COMMON GUNS AND THEY ARE MUCH RARER THAN MANY PEOPLE THINK BECAUSE THEY ARE USED TO SEEING THE SCORES OF RUSTY GUNS THAT WERE BROUGHT IN FROM CHINA. IF YOU WOULD LIKE A NICE EXAMPLE OF A BROOMHANDLE THEN WE HAVE IT RIGHT HERE, YOU JUST DON’T SEE THEM THIS NICE THAT OFTEN. THIS IS A GREAT PIECE OF WWI HISTORY.
