Title: Help Me Identify This C96
Post by: JGW006 on April 29, 2021, 09:20:31 PM

All, I’m looking at a C96 “Red 9”..... except the serial number (712389) doesn’t seem to fall within the “Red 9” block.  I’m not sure the front sight is correct for a “Red 9” either.  Is this in fact a “Red 9”, a late 1930’s C 96 that was refinished and “Red 9” grips attached?


What is the approximate value range?


Thank you, JGW
