I would imagine there are several members here who would be interested. :rolleyes:

Yes. Incredibly, I received a few PMs on it. People love this.

Also, posted two more C96s on auctionarms.com. If have interest, welcome to view. Those are "standard guns" that you can use to judge other C96s of same variation on the market. Or, use them as reference for restoration.

Talked to a collector over the phone a few days ago. He loves these, but he's new on collecting and could not tell what's original and what's not. He told me that many Chinese collectors are interested in these C96 stuffs.... I was surprised... I sold a few dozen of these, you're the only guy who can speak Mandarin so far.. People will settle down, pay off their houses,,, takes time, but that's just a time issue. The future is obviously bright.

We have some forum members who are secretly precision welders/machinists. I believe this bolt is repairable, and the cost will be worth the money to restore it to shooting condition.

I would post a thread in the restoration forum and request assistance, and I would bet you will get some. Let us know what happens.
