Mauser C96 

And who said gaming was just for kids? Everyone plays them. The reload animation in RE4 for the Mauser is also extremely satisfying.

Pretty sure he really doesn't play re4 ten hours a day but that'd be cool too see

Red9

Here here

That resident evil is his first choice and not red dead is mind blowing

Funny thing is I was thinking this was the base for the Red9 and then 1 minute later he calls out it out. I'm sure one of the reason he likes Resident Evil 4 because that game put alot of care into the gun animations.

Same. That caught me off guard. Good taste.

Yeah, except I'm not sure a 95-year-old guy would be reading comments on RU-vid videos these days, and that might be for the best. Our video comment sections are probably more civilized than many, but still it could be a bit perplexing and disappointing for him to see the haters and trolls that modern society and anonymity have given birth to on the Internet.

hickok45 - Point taken Hickok. You're probably right about that.

Sadly true

Barry Fields...very nice comments from U sir,& I to want to extend my appreciation to Mr. Dean for his service. It would b nice if his son would read a few of the comments of gratitude for his service & generosity for loaning his gun for Hickock to show off.

IT'S REVOLTING IT'S INSULTING

Yea good piece of steel

+Jay What is revolting and insuting?

I've watched a lot of Chinese movies, and the C96 is about as common in Chinese war films as the Beretta is in Hollywood action movies.

This is exactly why I bought a Mauser, all Chinese revolutionary heroes had one

When my neighbor moved into his house back in the 1970's (?) he found a Broomhandle Mauser wrapped in a silk Chinese escape map tucked away in the rafters of the garage. Probably a Flying Tiger's sidearm. If it could only talk! ---Old Guy

Nee hao

I know

The Red 9 was the sexiest weapon in that game. I was on the Blacktail, a Sig, in that game forever but the best bang for your buck with the pistol cartridges was the Red 9. Great taste.

Wow, he play Resident Evil 4 ten hours a day, I thought he can't be cooler. Now I really want to get RE4.

Han Solo's DL44 is the reason I looked this firearm up, loved it ever since. I also only play the last mission in MoH Airborne for this firearm

Antoniv Vasili As I was typing the question to Hickock about whether he knew Han Solo's laser blaster was based on the Mauser, I heard him mention it around 4 minutes in.

HAVOK586 the real life 9mm version is actually called the red 9

RE4?

Joseph Mattina its kinda obvious its from RE4 man, the Red 9 (C96) is one of the most iconic guns in video games

You beat me to it. :-D

Are usually prefer to use the Blacktail but I know a lot of people who play resident evil 4 always go for the red9

Kchy Park the Red9 is really good but i always have more fun with the high firerate of the Blacktail (ofcourse when im not doing Chicago Typewrite/Infinite rocketlauncher runs)

Same thing applies to the Luger.

@Brotato Chip There are two flat springs in the magazine. Then there is the magazine floorplate retainer.

@Brian Babin You compare a gun made in 1896 to ones in 1911...

@Brian Babin mad

@Brian Babin 20 year difference is huge, especially in that time of technological advancement.

My great grandfather served in the same places, I wonder if they knew eachother

@@etcetera5965 It's very possible and interesting to think about. I've often wondered if there are still stories floating around about my dad and those he served with.

It’s nice to hear people remember and have great respect for what all those great people did in a very tough time to be alive. I appreciate that it does not get forgotten and that being born 40 years after that war i am able to reap the benefits of all their sacrifice.

My dad was in the Belgian Bulge and returned with one of these. I always admired it but sadly he sold it to a neighbor before I was old enough to get my hands on it.

Fun fact: C96 stands for "Construktion 96". Back in the days "Konstruktion" was still spelled with C in Germany - and 96 for the year obviously.

Doesn't matter what year this gun was made it was quality as was everything made during the world wars all weapons were built to last back then you could bash a ton of people with the stock of a m1 garand or even the m1903 springfield and the stock won't even show any signs of damage they could keep going no matter how much you abused them they were built for the toughest wars fought back when you fought at long range with a sniper rifle and fought in mid to close ranges with guns that were of the same caliber of the sniper but had only iron sights and a big ol knife attached to the business end and when more often than not you'd be sticking your foes with the bayonet or bashing them with the butt of the gun in combat than pumping them full of bullets and back when rifles had a round that killed with its first impact no matter the range and way before the age of composite fiberglass or plastic stocks and you always fought at medium to long ranges with acog scopes and when you have to have 2 rifles with 2 different calibers one meabt for marksmanship and the other meant for infantry and where at long range you'd be better off lobbing rocks at your target as they would have greater effect things were for sure better for the army when the NATO regulations on gun calibers weren't in place to make more "humane" bullets because the bullets before NATO became a thing killed in at most 2 shots and that second shot would only happen when you were off on your aim

sir cn you tell me what the barrel length was on that? and what size the mag was how many rounds did the Bolo hold? Thanks please advise thanks shakes hands with Mr Berezovskii

A Bolo C96 had a barrel length of about 99mm (3.9 inches). I theld either 8-or-10 rounds.

Nik Berezovskii the tokarev used the 7.62 t 33 i think

Yup, Tokarev's used 7.62x25.

Absolutely correct. I've examined a C/96 that had the end of the extractor and a small part of the bolt sheared off, most likely from shooting surplus 7.62x25 ammo. Surplus 7.62x25 ammo was often intended for use in submachine guns, or the T33 which is much stronger than the C/96. Stick to 7.63mm Mauser marked cartridges only!!

It was actually a joke when I said it. :-) I almost never play computer games.
