C96 / C12 Broomhandle / Cone Hammer Trigger

« on: October 11, 2020, 09:34:40 AM »

I have searched the internet to the extent of my abilities, and have not been able to find the answer I'm looking for.  How is the trigger mechanism removed from a Cone Hammer?I can see why Mauser changed the design of the trigger and firing pin on the Large Ring.  Removing the firing pin is a real pain.  Try though I may, I still haven't been able to figure out the trigger.

C96 / C12 Broomhandle / Large Ring Hammer in 9mm

« on: October 03, 2020, 06:35:03 PM »

Brand new to the forum, discovered it by accident.  Have been collecting Mausers for quite a few years.Recently acquired a Large Ring C96 chambered in 9x19.  I knew Mauser made the Large Ring in 9mm but I thought it was only in 9x25.  Shortly after buying the pistol I saw another Lrg. Ring in 9x19 on an online auction.My question is do I have a re bored C96, or do I have a very rare C96.  My guess is the former rather than the later.If it is re bored, whoever did it did a very good job.  I was firing 6" groups at 75 yrds with the stock.
