**MAUSER SCHNELLFEUER BROOM HANDLE PISTOL (C&R).

SN 21184. Cal. 7.63 Mauser. Bbl 5-1/4″. Refinished example with Chinese markings on left side indicating this was one of the many that were exported to China. Includes one Mauser marked 20 round magazine. These guns were very popular in China where they were used by authorities effectively as crowd control. One can certainly imagine the psychological effectiveness of rapidly firing 20 rounds at a crowd while holding this gun sideways. These select-fire weapons fire extremely fast-firing. Markings remain clear with just some slight wash out from refinish, no shoulder stock present. Selector is slightly loose. Firing mechanism moves smoothly when operated by hand. This weapon appears fully functional. PROVENANCE: Formerly of the Doug Smith Collection. CONDITION: Extremely fine as refinished with light pitting visible under the refinish and some slight mottling of loss of finish. Selector and hammer have turned a dull brown patina. Magazine, although refinished, shows somewhat more moderate corrosion and pitting under the refinish with the floor plate being somewhat battered, yet still appears to be serviceable. Bore is dark with distinct rifling as is so typically found on specimens which were fired with corrosive ammunition and not cleaned. This condition is completely in keeping with many of the firearms which found their way to China in the pre-WWII era. This is a National Firearms Act item and requires BATF approval prior to transfer. This item is fully transferable on an ATF Form 3 or a Form 4. This is an interesting specimen from a very different era and will make a welcome addition to any NFA collection. 49700-2 JWK14 C&R (8,000-12,000) – Lot 2689

Auction: Firearms - March 2016

Please Note: All prices include the hammer price plus the buyer’s premium, which is paid by the buyer as part of the purchase price. The prices noted here after the auction are considered unofficial and do not become official until after the 46th day.
