Mauser C96 @ 240 frames per second

Shots are at 0:01, 0:27 and 0:50 if you wish to skip the dead space in between just click the links.
Just testing the 240fps frame rate on a new camera. Later slow-motion videos will just be clips of the shots themselves as this has far too long of a delay between shots.

Where can i order 7.63 mauser rounds when i ask at my local shop they look at me like im stupid and tell me the 7.62's will work but i have read the loads are not advisable for the C96?

@TheStrazy I've bought mine from Ammunition to Go, Graf & Sons and Military Gun Supply.

Is this a Bolo or 5.5 inch barell version?

[DrakeGmbH]

@andrejbb99 It's the full-size 5.5" model. It's a Wartime Commercial model, specifically.

Is it possible to use 7.62X25mm TT ammo for C96 instead of 7.63X25mm mauser ammo? I know that germans in ww2 used 7.63mm for captured russian 7.62mm weapons... Nice weapon i must say 5*****

[DrakeGmbH]

@karamelles98 It's possible as they are the same dimensions but it's not recommended to use modern commercial 7.62 Tokarev ammunition in these pistols. Original Russian Tokarev loads replicated the 7.63 Mauser ballistics but the modern loads are closer to Czech standards which were loaded to a higher velocity.

Just a few words to tell you that an interesting downloadable ebook on this model (technical and historic aspects) is available at HLebooks.com.
