you have seen the C96 broomhandle pistol. Here it is with the stock/holster attached.
Below, a fairly rare Inglis of Canada Mk 1* "tangent sight Browning High Power" pistol. these pistols were made for both the Canadian Army, and later in large numbers for the Chinese. This pistol is a Chinese contract gun.
These pistols are only legal to have a stock attached if the stock is original.
otherwise, the gun must be registered as SBR, or short barreled rifles.
these are becoming increasingly hard to find. The last Inglis with stock I saw for sale was in excess of $1600.00!
and yes, I am aware that the lanyard ring and a grip screw are missing from the Inglis....

I have two. in a few weeks I will have four... hardcore collector, or read as obesessed with history.
The other one is not shootable, but I spent a few hours changing out the recoil springs, the bad Mauser had a good one, this one had a bad one. So I swapped them. Which is a major undertaking and a real pain in the ass....

I dont think he meant in a functional sense of the word, but more in the way that they were very precisely made and complex.
I personally love firearms from this era, we had the Browning design which we all know and love today, but there was still room for other ideas, other designs to try and make their mark.

No, I'm fully aware of the actual ins and outs of the laws; that doesn't mean I can't think they're obnoxious and largely useless. Somewhere down the line when I have the cash to do so, I'm probably going to pick up the semi-auto version of the Bruegger and Thomet MP9, with stock and integral fore grip and all the flaming hoop jumping needed to do so (I want a few suppressors, as well).
I'd gladly trade in the stupid 86 law banning any and all full auto's from being sold to civilians for one that just makes it a ~$1000 fine. Full auto converts money into noise so efficiently that a high buy-in isn't really an issue to people who can afford to feed them.

You are one lucky bugger now aren't you! With all your rifles and uber rare pistols. I was thinking about modifying my airsoft M1911 as to pay homage to these great guns, I was going to make a detachable stock and barrel extension. Have any ideas on a good rifle to model it after?
I have decided that you are thr future me. I thought of it the other day and once I get a nice house I will most likely have two rooms dedicated to nothing but my collection. One room will be allies and the other will be axis. I then thought of my family coming over for dinner one night and just seeing banners hanging from the rafters and weapons on every wall.
Man, these things are awesome, in fact, the most awesome thing about your collection is that you probably have some of the most prolific firearms of the Republic of China armed force during WW2, the Mauser pistol, Kar98K & MG34.
I wonder if the one you have can fire automatically. There are a lot of NRA (National Revolution Army) personnel modify their C96s to act like submachine guns as China (republic of) was prohibited getting submachine guns (didn't keep the mobsters getting their Tommys though) because of the bullshit treaties during the 1910s.

I met a gentleman at a gunshow recently who made the mistake of showing off a couple of his C96s when he stopped by our table. He was quite the fan. The usual stuff though, Mausers, bolos and Astras.. But I saw one that I thought I'd never see in person... And he gets an email from me nearly daily offering him money for it. I figure he can't hold out for too long before that Shanxi Type 17 is mine.
