C96 Pistol with Wooden Stock – The Roar of the 20th Century

The German legend that crossed wars, revolutions and generations

Forged at the dawn of modernity, when empires were crumbling and the trenches were fields of steel and fire, the C96 Mauser pistol emerged as a symbol of innovation and power. More than a weapon, it was the echo of a burning Europe, the companion of soldiers, revolutionaries, and officers who changed the course of history.

The Birth of a Classic

Conceived in 1896 by Peter Paul Mauser , the C96 was one of the first mass-produced semi-automatic pistols. Its groundbreaking design, with a broom-shaped grip and forward-loading magazine, made it a unique piece of equipment for its time. It quickly earned the nickname "Broomhandle" and quickly earned a place in the most important theaters of war of the 20th century.

The German Army used it extensively during World War I , where its reliability in close-quarters combat made it an indispensable ally. Beyond Germany, it was adopted by communist Russia , earning it the nickname "Bolo-Mauser" —the Bolshevik Mauser—and was used in multiple conflicts, from revolutions to civil wars, from Asia to Latin America.

In 1939 , when World War II broke out, the C96 was still in service, a testament to its durability, power, and accuracy. Although it was never adopted as standard issue by any army, history has long since turned it into a legend .
