Description
3/17/26 - This is a Model 1930 Broomhandle from the 1930's. This variant appeared in 1930, and was the first C-96 to have a real model designation. Mauser called it the Modell 1930, but the common modern name is the M-30. With the M-30, Mauser dropped the Bolo-sized C-96 for good, and reverted to the standard formula which had dominated throughout the prewar and wartime eras - 10 shot magazine, large grip, long barrel, 1000 meter tangent sight, and grooved walnut grip panels. This particular example is matching and was issued to the Shanghai Municipal Police, as evidenced by the roll mark on the top of the barrel. It is in beautiful condition, retaining nearly all of its original bluing. There are just a couple of small dots of wear on the underside of the barrel. Minyt bore. Fitted with excellent un-numbered wood grips. It comes as a rig with a period-correct "Mauser" banner marked wood stock (just minor bruising and scratching).
