That is correct. It is reported to be 100% reliable and functional - I hope so and we'll see - the previous owner supposedly wanted more of an "every day" mixed parts example. I'm not planning on shooting it very much, just "a little once in a while".
In other news, when I went to my local FFL, they had a C96 in the case - so I got to handle that. Looked decent overall - reblued over some pitting on one side. Cool gun, but I'm just not jonesing for one. $1200.
