mauser c96

Broomhandle's stock is hollow. It also plays a holster role, the pistol can be stored and carried in it. For shooter C96, there is no reason to invest into an original Mauser stock. The newly made replication stock works well, and you can attach it to C&R C96 (one exception is Chinese assembled 1930-like C96 with removable magazine, it's not C&R).

Typical shooter costs a few hundred dollars. Sometimes, you can find NRA Excellent M1930 or NRA VG Red 9 around $1200 (I heard "always have people willing to sell under value", I found that's true. Usually those are not in top condition nor rare variations, but those are good guns). Those are not shooters, but you can shoot them from time to time, and they do shoot well without extra repairing, reworking cost.
