DESCRIPTION GOES HERE
The Mauser C96, produced from 1896 to 1937, is a distinctive semi-automatic pistol known for its integral box magazine, long barrel, wooden shoulder stock doubling as a holster, and broom handle-shaped grip. It was nicknamed "broomhandle" in English-speaking countries and "box cannon" in China. With its high-velocity cartridge, it had superior range and penetration compared to contemporary pistols. Mauser made around one million C96 pistols, with unlicensed copies also produced in Spain and China during the first half of the 20th century.

The Mauser C96 pistol gained rapid popularity since its 1896 debut, adopted by governments, civilians, and military officers. Initially favored by British officers, its appeal declined by World War I. Named "Peter the Painter" in connection to an anarchist, it saw action in various conflicts like World War I, the Irish War of Independence, and the Spanish Civil War.

The Mauser C96, produced from 1896 to 1937, is a distinctive semi-automatic pistol known for its integral box magazine, long barrel, wooden shoulder stock doubling as a holster, and broom handle-shaped grip. It was nicknamed "broomhandle" in English-speaking countries and "box cannon" in China. With its high-velocity cartridge, it had superior range and penetration compared to contemporary pistols. Mauser made around one million C96 pistols, with unlicensed copies also produced in Spain and China during the first half of the 20th century.

HISTORY

The Mauser C96 pistol gained rapid popularity since its 1896 debut, adopted by governments, civilians, and military officers. Initially favored by British officers, its appeal declined by World War I. Named "Peter the Painter" in connection to an anarchist, it saw action in various conflicts like World War I, the Irish War of Independence, and the Spanish Civil War. Notable figures like Winston Churchill and Lawrence of Arabia favored it, and it featured prominently in historic events such as the Kakori train robbery and the assassination of political figures like Spanish Prime Minister Eduardo Dato and King Alexander I of Yugoslavia. Widely used in conflicts like the Second Sino-Japanese War and World War II, it came in various chamberings, including 7.63×25mm, 9×19mm Parabellum, 9mm Mauser Export, and .45 ACP, with China being the only nation to adopt it as its primary service pistol.
