Hi, I'm not sure if this is the right section for this,
I found a C96 9mm carbine for sale at my local range for $1500, I'm wondering does anyone know more this gun and whether it's worth the money. They also got a real Mauser C96 pistol for sale but there's no way i can afford 20 grand. $1500 is already way more than I can spare, but to pick up a once-in-a-lifetime buy I could dip into savings to get it. 9 mm is also alot easier to obtain than 7.63 Mauser.
The carbine is not mint, based on my blue book's photo grading system I'd probably around 85% or so. The store says it works and safe to shoot, the bore looks good and the crown is sharp & in good condition. I plan on buying it for collecting and take it to the range every now and then to show off.
They also have a Mauser Mod 45 bolt action 22 trainer for $350, also drew my attention because i like older guns and would be a nice addition to my collection.
Gun internal & operation is in good condition, exterior has some bluing wear and stock has some scratches and dings.
Thanks in advance!
