Nice review. I'm just getting into firearms and love learning about historical pieces. Keep it up Eric!

Holy smokes how fun is this?! Good to see different stuff on youtube. Thanks for the variety guys!

Those are so freaking cool and so far out of my price range. Great video. The next best thing to owning one is watching you guys pop off some rounds with them.

Wow, watch that whole assembly wobble when fired with the high speed camera...pretty cool stuff. Great video!

I’ve been waiting for this video for a long time! One of my all time favorite guns, probably my favorite that I own

Such an awesome gun i wish I was of age before all of these guns had become basically unattainable to the average person. I’m 22 and definitely could not afford majority of milsurps I want

oscar trujillo start getting what’s out there little by little. Yea it’s more expensive now because the surplus firearms aren’t out there like it used to be, but don’t play the ‘I wish I did back then’ game a few years into the future, because you’ll kick yourself in the ass too hard... If you go on GB you can usually find something for the right price.

Joey P Agreed. When I was very little my dad and I went to a gun show. There was a barrel full of AKs for around $3-400 each. With a large box of magazines next to it. He still cringes every time he thinks about passing on them. He finally bought an SKS not too long ago. Jokes that he was shot at by them enough times to respect them. Might as well try it from the other end for a change. Lol

Good video. One of the few that I've found where the Astra is fired as well. I've always been very found of the Broomhandle. I'm 50 years old and I've been a fan of the pistol since I was a kid back in the seventies. I'm especially a fan of the 'Bolo' configuration which I finally purchased one a couple years ago. Again a very good video.

Thanks for the review on one of the pistols that I always wanted. I finally purchased one with the shoulder stock..it's not working but I plan to send it to a specialist in the states that can do repair on it...looking forward to that and maybe one day post a video on KZread..

love the broomhandles, thanks for bring them out...

I'm still waiting for a nice C96 reproduction. Sure its design wasn't reused for a reason, but it's still a gun I think looks good and can be made better with our modern technology. Besides, how else am I gonna feel like Booker Dewitt? ;)

Great video! Keep em coming!

Picked up a red nine this year. Love shooting it and the P08 artillery. Awesome guns. I wish a company like Pedersoli would make new ones out of modern steel on CNC machines.

Awesome vid guys!

Thanks for the upload!

Great video guys.

Where's the puma?

Thanks , I've been wanting to see you do a video on the c96 I always see on the wall behind you,. I recently bought one also

I've been wanting to see this!

A+ stuff. Thanks for an enjoyable 20 minutes.

I’ve held one before, it was made in 1918, and it was pretty front heavy. Also the rear sight jostles around which was something I didn’t expect.

Looked like bump fire! When you had the stock/holster connected there towards the end of the video. When you were rapid-firing! Clint Eastwood Used one also in his western Joe Kid and the thug in John Carpenter's Original Assault on precinct 13 used one to cap the little girl . Very disturbing scene. But very cool pieces of rich history!

Classic. More like this, please.

I love the gun!😱🤘

I really enjoy seeing the old firearms that still are usable over a hundred years latter.

Wonderful pistol, and video.....thanks!

Always nice to see classic designs instead of all plastic.

i own 14 brooms and one is a schnell. have always loved the design, fun to shoot ,good video thanks

great video , more vids on ww1 and ww2 guns needed !

I love this gun! Great video. I need to make a video with mine. The sound it makes is awesome and very distinct.

The man who would cut two Lugers in half and make a .45 was John Vernon Martz from Lincoln, California. My brother worked for him for quite a few years and made grips, stocks, springs and other parts for him. He has passed away though; I think in 2012 or 2013.

Great video Eric as always... I just love The Mauser Broom Handle... I'd love to have one for the Collection... Very desirable piece an it is a very interesting piece of Firearms history... I want an example...😆👌🔫

Hi Eric, Firstly a bigs thanks to you and Chad for your videos. Always enjoyable to watch. Just a thought on the Mauser being knocked off by the .357, what about the .38 Super? I am thinking its 130gr at 1280fps would have to have been up there.

Really slings that brass outta there!

Love the videos. I just got a Mauser vk 24 8mm.

Very nice. State of the art for its time, to say the least.

awwww I want one of these so bad. By far my favorite looking pistol

Thank you!

Next to be named as an "assault rifle " by the antis ! Nice to see someone actually shooting these great old guns ! Can't bear to think of how many of them I've walked past at gun shows over the years !

so awesome seeing this! After years of asking, my dad just recently gave me the astra 900 and arisaka type 99 that my grandfather brought back from WW2. Neither gun had been fired in about 70 years and we fired the 900 for the first time, just an awesome experience and a fun shooter. Too bad there aren't many options for ammo. I've seen that the 7.62 tokarev is the same as the 7.63 mauser except maybe for powder charge. Anyone able to shed some light on this?

I buy Tok ammo and pull the bullets to install an American powder in a reduced load. The TOK ammo will work in a .30 Mauser, but it is risky as hell!

Hey nice video. Can you guys do a video about the shooting in Texas because when I watched the news here in Portugal they didn't explained very well and I also heard something about a gun ban. Love your videos. Thanks

Eric, Have you seen "The Rocketeer"? Best and most iconic scene of a hero with a broomhandle towards the end. You'll love it! I've got a Chinese copy with the 10 and 20 round detachable magazines in 9mm. Operates great... just wish I could get extra magazines cheap & easily.

I love my broomhandle, mine's a Model 1930 commercial C96 with a shoulder stock made in the 50's. It's just a shame that the barrel is pretty worn down at this point, so the thing isn't very accurate, but it's still in good working condition, so I still take it to the range just a few times a year.

@myfavoritemartian1

There is a company that relines the barrel. It is not detectable from the outside and restores it to a real shooter.

Almost got one at my local pawn shop but they didn't consign the holster with it because the thought selling it together would qualify as an SBR. Last time I took that shop seriously for anything.

I have the c96 mauser bolo, it's the shorter barrel version with a slightly different grip, mine was made between 1923/30, it's still get the stock/ holster but sadly no leather fixings.

Awesome. Those are so cool. I guess the ammo is expensive and hard to find. It seems that, in combat, that clip feeding thing could get you killed. As to the Star Wars thing, even as a kid in the 1970s, when Star Wars hit theaters, I noticed that Harrison Ford's gun was a Broomhandle Mauser and the similarities (especially in uniforms) of the Empire to the SS and Whermacht. A really cool thing. Can you do some more oldies, like 8mm French revolver, Colt .38 Auto (pre-dates .38 Super), those giant WW1 Mauser anti tank bolt action rifles, Bren Gun, Luger P 09 Artillery Model with snail drum mag, the Lancaster SMG (50 round mag Brit SMG of WW2), I could go on and on, I like oldie military weapons.

You have an awesome collection. Question, would you ever do a meltdown video of a Colt LE6920/ "civilian" M4 carbine?

Takes you back to a time when people took pride in their work and were craftsmen.

Hans Solo loved his too.

It also helps that a modified mauser broom handle was used as the prop for han solo's heavy blaster pistol in the original star wars movies

lots of .22 competition guns have the magazine in front of the trigger guard :P

Lewis guns were also used for blasters in Star Wars! The aesthetics of old guns are the best!

Nice man! I've got a few, and built them for live fire props. I made the one for Jerry Miculek. It's here on youtube somewhere.

I was really hoping he would duel-wield them for fun but good video as always

Being the fastest pistol cartridge until 1935 is incorrect. The TT-30 and TT-33 were chambered in simply a hotter version of this same caliber, the Tokarevs will even fire Mauser ammo just fine. Awesome video, thanks for sharing! I love how he always points the gun downrange before chambering a round. Smart man.

Sweet Gun.

I just picked up one. Planning to send it to the states to be restored...

I know that it's been three years since you did this video. I just got my mitts on a C96 in 7,63mm. Haven't fired it yet. I've found ammunition. The stripper clips seem to be a problem. Any leads on them? Thanks for the great video.

Having shot a few of these old stocked pistols (not a broomhandle) I know they are not quite as capable as you'd want to believe from just looking at them but I would still like to see how far they could be pushed in the hands of some pretty good shooters like you and Chad.

Hans solo blaster was actually a broomhandle with crap put all over it which is really cool, film industru then just used what rhey could, for example in from russian with love the front iconic poster image was of an airpistol they had as the prop departmwnt disnt have a walther to hand lol, think it was a bsa break barrel 😁😁 aweaome video guys superb gun

There were S&W revolvers in the 1800s that had removable stocks if I recall correctly.

Try using a standard AR-15/M16 stripper for your broomhandle, works very well for me...unsolicited tip... you can also make your own brass from cut down .223/5.56 brass.

Finally !!

Thanks

I just got one for a song and ordered a spring set for it

Awsome

What do ya think of a video on a Spanish Mauser in .308? Or something on new cartridges; .224 Valkyrie, .277 wolverine, 6.5 creed more, etc. Or the new ruger mpr, or m&p 10 sport?

That is very accurate. I wonder where I could find a stock for my P08.

“I can carry a spare...”, LOL!

I'm honestly considering saving up to find one to use as my carry piece

Saw this in a Clint Eastwood flick the other night. Purdy neat

Bad ass. Wish i owned a few :)

The Chinese called these Box Cannons. When I last visited China, I went into one of the museums commemorating the resistance effort against the Japanese and the Civil War itself and there were rows of Mauser C96 variants, Thompson M1928s with 50 round drums, Type 24(Similar to K98k) and Hanyang 88s (Gewehr 88 copies).

Love the chanel lots of info that I did not know

Great video I'd like to have a Mauser m712 I think it is, it a variant of the C96 but with a detachable 10 or 20 round box magazine

Hey Eric and Chad I got a Question ! I got my POF P416 lower and in another six months I will be able to get my upper all new from factory and this will be my first AR type of rifle. I live in California and really impressed with those Roblar custom guns you guys get where they do all the extra coating etc. Not sure if this a great question cause I am new to the gun world but would Roblar be able to Pimp my ride like they do those pistols you guys do ? POF is nice company and I know they coat there bolt carrier group ect. But with my new lower and new upper could they do some great magic with that rig? I have the thordson stalk cause I live in California but if they could pimp out a POF AR to make more durable or just continue to make more fine and plus , i am new so I not even sure what I would ask them but tell them to do the works etc. Thank you and love your channel for bout 5 years now .
