One of the major importers [Navy Arms, Federal Ordnance, I don't recall who] had a batch of 712 Schnellfeuers but could not legally sell them [BATF vetoed request] so they had a 'C96' (or M30) gripframe made up which could not take 712 full-auto internals and only fire semi-auto. Brand new, good machining, very good finish. Sold them all, with rest of parts sets refinished as well (and modified for semi). I don't recall now if magazines were removable or fixed [internal]. Interesting but 're-manufactured', not restored. Limited collector interest.
