Post by: Pablo1898 on March 23, 2021, 01:54:00 PM
Hi there
           I recently aquired this Mauser C-96 in Argentina
           Its chambered to 9x19mm
           Serial number is 36962
           Any Thoughts?
           Thank you very much
           Pablo

It is fairly early. A very early small ring hammer. The front sight has been modified. It appears to have been re-finished. Regards,

Thank you very much for the information, Bearing in mind that it is an early model we can say that originally it was not 9x19mm?
Regards
Pablo

Some examples for this serial number range were in 9mm Mauser or 9mm export. Which are a bit longer than 9x19mm.
