@@escott3829 I had a similar issue in my red 9 where sometimes the gun would eject an unfired round as well as the case of the just fired round. The reason for any feed problems in 9mm is that the c96 doesn't really have a feed ramp, the bullets are right in line with the barrel, and the 9mm guns used the same frame as the 30 cal guns, which means the 9mm rounds which are about 1/3rd shorter overall length than the 30 Mauser rounds are sitting in a magazine made for 30 Mauser. I would assume your problem is caused by your mag spring getting worn down, it's not holding the rounds under enough pressure and they are sliding foward due to the extra space.

There are some sold in Gun Broker in the US with very high price. I encountered one in the same condition in 1993 that belonged to the ex chief of police that has been taken from the hand of death old man who committed divide due to his illness in the late 1950. The asking price was $650.00.There was no stock. The second one under the same condition that I found in 2015 at the gun club in Milford, Connecticut for $2,500.00. Again without shoulder stock.

Awesome video! Really excellent production. This gun is also the foundation of Han Solo's blaster in Star Wars. When I was a kid I used to read the Spirit comics and he had this gun also. Its amazing seeing the milling work from over a hundred years ago and how its just as fine as anything we make today with CNC machines.

What a well filmed, narrated and edited video! I will definitely check out more of your videos.

What a lovely pistol ! Thanks for showing it !!

Very enjoyable video!

A beautiful piece of history. Thank you so much for posting this! Tom - Vista, CA - USA

I have seen many pictures of this pistol, have even seen a couple in display cases in museums....but this is the first time I have seen one in this detail and, live fired!! MOST impressive!! Thank you.

That is absolutely the best broomhandle I've ever seen. Very close to mint. Congratulations on finding it.

I like this guy's going into the history on his videos. As for the take down, I would have lost a spring.

Nice concise presentation, very interesting and professional. The stock and stripping tool/ammo pouch accessory is really something else, what a package. Gotta love a piece of history like that! Cheers mate.

I enjoyed seeing this iconic weapon/design come to life with your explanation and range time.

This is my favourite pistol. The dismantle and assembly process is pure asmr.

Thanks for posting this video. It was very well done. I learned a lot!

Such an amazing design with only one screw for holding the wooden grips together.

ealous to the core. not only have the opportunity to hold this masterpiece of engineering, but also to produce the shots.

Awesome video! I was just looking to see it discharge but I got to learn about its history and assembly and reassembly; very impressed.

As the owner of a C96 made in 1905 (and in the original 7.63 mm Mauser), a couple of comments: (1) the manufacturing quality is very, very good. (2) the ergonometrics when shooting with the shoulder stock attached are extremely poor, in terms of the hammer repeatedly "whacking" the web of your hand/thumb if you use a "normal" grip as shown here (i.e., wrapped around the stock). From the video, the problem may be more manageable with the "Red 9s," as the 9mm Parabellum is a bit less powerful than the original 7.63 mm Mauser (which reportedly was the most powerful "standard" pistol cartridge until the .357 Magnum was introduced). But with the 7.63 mm, it's a handful! (3) Any version of the C96 has a LOT of "little parts." I did not have any problem disassembling/reassembling . . . on my nice, dry, clean WORKBENCH. But doing the same in a muddy, wet World War I trench would be a NIGHTMARE. ON a related point: I love your videos - particularly those which show you hunting with "antique" firearms -- and shooting better than I ever could with something more "modern"!

It's difficult to describe. The shape of the gripe, maybe. The narrow barrel. I just like it. I don't think I'd mind buying one in the future. I mean, I guess a gun that looks that nice probably costs a lot of money and yes a gun license is a no brainer but still, it's a very aesthetically pleasing gun. :)
