1923-30 Mauser C96 Bolo .30 Broomhandle Compact w/ holster stock C-96

 

 

The Mauser C96 "Bolo" in .30 Luger (7.65mm Parabellum) is a coveted collectible, offering both historical significance and remarkable design. Known for its smaller "Bolo" grip, this version of the iconic C96 semi-automatic pistol was produced between 1923 and 1930. With a blued finish, a 10-round capacity, and a unique box magazine located ahead of the trigger, this piece stands out for its distinct profile and historical allure.

Overall, this Mauser C96 Bolo is in good condition. There are various rust spots, finish loss, and scratches, but these are minor and do not detract from its overall aesthetic appeal or functionality. The bore is generally clean with minor old fouling, and it features excellent rifling with sharp lands and grooves.

Included in the sale are the small "Bolo" ribbed wood grips with a stock slot and lanyard ring, adding to its authenticity and historical value. The barrel length is 3.9 inches, and the firearm features a rear 1000m leaf V notch sight and a front fixed blade sight, ensuring accuracy in shooting.

Introduced in 1896, the Mauser C96 quickly became one of the most recognized pistols in history, often referred to as the "Broomhandle" due to its distinctive grip shape. Approximately 1 million units were produced until 1937, making it a rare find and highly collectible. The Bolo variant, with its shorter barrel and smaller grip designed for the Russian market, adds another layer of intrigue for collectors and history enthusiasts alike.

Owning the Mauser C96 Bolo in .30 Luger offers a tangible connection to early 20th-century innovation and craftsmanship. Its unique design, reliable performance, and historical significance make it a standout piece in any collection. Whether you're a collector or a shooting aficionado, the Mauser C96 Bolo promises both a fascinating piece of history and an enjoyable shooting experience.
