The accuracy is a myth. Be honest, it's hard to shoot C96 well without stock attached. But some people could do it well. Numerous memoirs recorded an old game: putting a small bawl on a unlucky guy's head, an operator shot the bawl off hand at "20-step" distance (don't try that yourself).

This type of story usually went in this context: say, one guy wanted to join a bandit group, bandit leader asking things like 'are you bold enough? standing in the yard, I will give you a test'..... the rest of story was described above.

Say, this guy was not scared. Next step was also challenging -- 'do you have an enemy? yes? here is a broomhandle, kill him and come back'. After this guy really killed someone, he could not drop any more. Tough environment, not easy.
