Description

5/18/26 - This is a commercial Mauser 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 has retained about 85% of its original bluing. While there isn't a ton of actual bluing loss, there is noticeable spotty oxidation and light pitting covering most of the gun. There is rust and more noticeable pitting under the grips. Fitted with period-correct grips. There are noticeable dings and bruises on both sides, and the screw head on the left is fused to the metal escutcheon. The rifling in the bore is fairly worn with obvious pitting throughout.
