Description
10/2/25 – This is a very nice example of a commercial Mauser Model 1930 Broomhandle from the 1932-34. This variant appeared in 1930, and was the first C-96 to have a real model designation. Mauser called it the Modell 1930, but the common modern name is the M-30. With the M-30, Mauser dropped the Bolo-sized C-96 for good, and reverted to the standard formula which had dominated throughout the prewar and wartime eras – 10 shot magazine, large grip, long barrel, 1000 meter tangent sight, and grooved walnut grip panels. This particular example is matching but has a fake Nazi proof on the barrel. It has been completely refinished, and the bluing has a plum color to it. Fitted with very nice un-numbered wood grips. Excellent, shiny bore.
