LugerForum Discussion Forums - View Single Post - OT: Need identification of this C96-stock

The barrel is not shortened, and the rear sight is adjustable. I own two of theese 1920-stamped "red nines" that has not been shortened..

Here is a picture of the gun in question:

The holster-stock is not stamped with a military acceptance mark.. But some of my other C96 stocks are.

This gun did not go to France... This gun came here to Norway in 1940 with german troops. The holster-stock has been with the gun since 1945.

But I thought all commercial holster-stocks produced 1914-1930 were numbered? Is this wrong?
