C-96 Help

Karl · 08-30-2012, 07:54 PM

The C-96 is potentially dangerous because the bolt is retained by a very small bit of metal on the back of the receiver. Before shooting your new C-96 examine the back of the receiver carefully for cracks or deformed metal. I have seen a few at gun shows that were beat to death. I also suggest replacing all the springs with a new Wolff kit and replacing the bolt retaining lug which can shear off (see Lugerdoc). I do not recall that the bolt is a numbered part, however, if this is a mixmaster why is it important? Happy shooting.
