All the early semi-autos are fascinating to me, with their seat-of-the-pants designs, over-engineering, and old-world/steampunk craftsmanship. That is one nifty, uber cool little carbine. I imagine producing one like it today with the same internals would cost about as much as a gently used Toyota sedan, but I could sure find a use for one. :) Thanks for showing this!

I can't understand why they didn't use the 1917 carbine as the basis of the 1917 pistol, too. The pistol grip or shoulder stock would be usable on both. The pistol barrel could be made just like a carbine barrel, but in a much shorter length. 99% parts compatibility, with only the barrel differing, would be a major benefit, and keep the design viable for decades. The features and design of the carbine were clearly superior to the pistol, and Mauser could have had a winner on their hands if they had just put a bit more thought into a common platform.

The days of incredibly heavily-built magazines. I appreciate Ian "nerding out" at the end to give us the close-ups: look at the wall thickness, that is some heavy-gauge sheet those are made of! As unbelievably cool as these antique s.b.r. unobtanium guns are, those mags are eye-popping. Ian's tone conveyed that he, too, found the construction of the 9mm Para mags odd, since all that space in front generally means less contact with- and control of- the cartridge during feeding. He's even showcased designs in the past that were revised to shorten that distance, thereby mitigating feeding problems.

Interesting. Looking at what you showed, I had the impression that the carbine had been simplified in various ways from the traditional C96 parts. So while it would have involved expense to change the production line, overall, it might have ended up being a cheaper gun to make in production. Of course that still might have been more expensive than the competitors.

Nice. The collector's hearth gives us another very rare item. I so ehow missed this video. It may have posted during a brief period that i did not have internet service. Seems like it would be quite practical for trench raids and trench defense. Assuming an affective range of 100-125 yards, and it looks like it would weigh 6 lbs or less. The magazine design is inspired. It is too bad no one makes a reproduction. It would probably be prohibitively expensive, but i wonder if modern CNC machining would reduce the need for intricate hand fitting. Nice to see that it still exists. Great video as always. Thank you

I of limited means, couldn't afford one but it would warm my heart that I knew someone else was enjoying a modern copy of such distinctive pistols.

@trauko1388 shotguns (pump) is a great close combat weapon. The trombone action actually brings it on back to ready position. What it lacks is any significant range. If it was only a US fetish then other countries (notably the USSR and later Russia) wouldn't also be manufacturing semi and full auto military shotguns. Experienced pump combat shot gunners can engage and hit 5 targets in as many seconds with about a 3 second per round reload time. In WW1 there were very few firearms which had as rapid per target engagement time, and for the most part those were pistols which take far more practice to hit moving targets and re-aquire the next one. I'm not a shotgun fan...I'd much rather use explosives for trench warfare.

I picked up a lot of 3 Chinese import bolo's for a hundred bucks back in the 80's. They were horrid but I did manage to get one built out of the 3, they had a ton of rust and pits so I took the best frame and the best parts, polished them to a passable degree and hot blued the in our tanks when we 3 smiths got together and did a batch of bluing. (I did re-blue the other 2 as well but not as well). Took the lot to a gun show and managed to get 300 out of the 3, enough for a couple nice pistols to add to my collection if I remember right. I told the buyer of the whole gun not to shoot it, but he said he was going to shoot some old 30 Mauser out of it. I never saw the buyer again, don't know if he really did shoot it or not. Overall it was an interesting project, I sort of wish I had kept the complete gun but it would just lay gathering dust now as the rest of my guns are. Don't get out of the house much any more except to go visit my Doctors.

Funny you should mention the 'difficult reassembly' thing. It's only a difficult reassembly procedure if you haven't had to do it a dozen (or more) times in one night while you're slowly falling asleep from exhaustion as you try to fit a replacement disconnector/sear spring to one. I can still just about do it with my eyes closed and it's been a few years since I had that experience. Oh and it happened to be one of those semi-auto converted 712 models that I believe Briklee (or something like that) brought in from China and made new grip frames for, so it isn't exactly the most well fitted pistol ever made. At least it did come with a genuine 712 stock even though it doesn't fit (they didn't quite cut a full stock slot, possibly intentionally) and I can't legally put it on it anyway, so I paired it with a different M30 model broomhandle that is all original (except for the grips, which were rotten) which can legally fit a stock. Small edit after watching a bit further- The 712 I mentioned does still have the hammer hold-open feature, though the notch is a slightly more rounded divot rather than the almost hook-like slot this has. It's actually quite useful to me, as my local range requires all guns to be locked open with detachable mags removed during cease fire periods, so it gives me a way to lock it open with the mag out and not have to jam one of those plastic things into the action. I've had bad experiences with those plastic things and old style, top mounted, spring steel pistol extractors. The Type 14 Nambu for instance, had an extractor snap right off at some point, either during firing or just before, and it's possible that plastic thing had something to do with it. A real shame too, it was a matching gun, down to that extractor until that happened, though I do still have the stub of the extractor with the number on it somewhere.

Would have been cool if Mauser made the pistol able to change out the front barrel section for when it is used as a rifle so the stock is added and has a long barrel along with the magazine added to the gun for both pistol and rifle mode.
