Searching for a Mauser C96? This is a fully legal 1:1 scale airsoft replica — the same silhouette, size and feel as the historic weapon, but no firearms permit required in most EU countries. Owning a real Mauser C96 typically means a certified gun safe, background checks and €1,500–€4,000+ for a collectable original. This replica costs a fraction of that, ships across the EU, and is the fastest legal way to own an accurate copy of this gun for display, historical re-enactment, airsoft skirmish, or as a learning piece. Note: airsoft laws vary by country — it is the buyer's responsibility to confirm that owning an airsoft replica is legal where they live before purchasing.
The Mauser broomhandle with shoulder stock — the way it was carried
The Mauser C96 first appeared in 1896 and the select-fire M712 Schnellfeuer variant followed in 1932, developed for export and adopted by German forces during the Second World War. One of its trademark features was the wooden shoulder-stock holster that allowed the broomhandle to be shouldered like a carbine for accurate fire at longer ranges.
And of course there is the silver-screen legacy: real Mauser C96s were modified to create the DL-44 blaster pistol Han Solo wields in the original Star Wars trilogy.
This airsoft variant is the green-gas GBB with shoulder stock included, allowing you to recreate the full historical configuration. Semi and full-auto fire from a 25-round magazine, smooth blowback, chrono around 300 FPS (~0.84 J).
