2/321 – This is a “Red 9” Mauser C96 Broomhandle, chambered in 9mm. Unlike its commercial counterparts, “Red 9” Broomhandles were chambered in the more common 9mm Para caliber, which was used by the German Army and were marked with a large 9 on the grips which was then filled with red or orange paint to help German soldiers differentiate its caliber from the standard .30 mauser cartridge. Only about 130,000 of these very collectible guns were made, with only about 100,000 being accepted by the army and issued to the troops. Considered to be a substitute for a light carbine, they became very popular in trench warfare and were used by some of the Germany’s elite crack troops. This one is all matching and has retained about 60% of its original finish. There is general thinning, light brown patina, and spotty oxidation throughout. The grips are excellent and matching. The bore has great rifling with minor pin-pricking in the grooves.
