Quoting myself, that's clever.
But... in the beginnings of smokeless powders many people thought the chores of thoroughly cleaning their weapons were a thing of the past. Little they knew that the primers were also corrosive, and that just one or two shots, if the gun was left unattended, could completely ruin the bore. That's the main reason why most C96s have such lousy bores.
