Hi Bill,

Some Lugers lacked the hold open, so it could be functioning as it should - we need more info to be able to tell one way or the other.

Mauser produced C96â??s originally chambered for the 9x19 Luger cartridge are uncommon. But many (if not most) of the clapped out Mauser C96â??s imported from China were converted to 9 mm Luger by people of varying levels of skill. Approach this one with caution.

Best regards,

Kyrie
