First C96 in hand?
It's easy. hayhugh's and sheepherder's posts are great. But using wood or bamboo tools will be better, help avoiding scratching. I always use wood tools, but removing firing pin using a Mauser cleaning rod which fits the pin slot well -- a right size screwdriver can do it, copper head screwdriver will be better, but not always available.
The gun is 100% correct. Not only all matching, even those unnumbered parts, down to springs and screw are correct. You can use this gun as a reference to judge future acquisition of same variation.
Enjoy!
