C96 / C12 Broomhandle / Re: Resleeving/relining C96 barrel

Thanks for the lead. I've also recently found another gunsmith shop both capable and willing to take the job. It was formerly owned & operated by the late Bob Dunlap of the American Gunsmith Institute videos. Pisco, AKA, Pacific International Service Company. I'm not quite ready yet, but when I am, I'll likely use them, $200-250 (+tax & shipping), with a 2-3 month turnaround.


Thanks, Karl, 68coupe

C96 / C12 Broomhandle / Reloading question
« on: January 30, 2024, 08:29:00 PM »
I've seen "Lee Precision Factory Crimp Die" for sale on various sites. Is it necessary or recommended to crimp the projectile when reloading? I crimp my .30-06, but is it good to do the 30 Mauser?


Thanx in advance, Karl

"I have had two c96 barrels relined by redmondsrifling.com and was satisfied.  He usually has a long backlog and may not be taking in new work.  Cost was around $350"



Thank you. I found his website & he's not taking new work right now. Big notice in bold red font saying exactly that. I also did a little more research and found that I probably don't want anyone else for the job. I guess I'll wait.

Does anyone know of a reputable place to do a re-sleeve job on my nearly shot out 7.63X25 C96? Approximate price tag?


VR, thanks in advance, Karl, 68coupe

C96 / C12 Broomhandle / Projectiles for reloading

New guy here. Newly purchased C96 (I don't even have it yet). I went through the entire list of posts, and never saw this come up.


Where can I buy 85-88 gr projectiles for reloading?


Thanks in advance, Karl, 68coupe
