I have a question for /k/ Right now I'm on the fence between a Mauser C96 or a Luger. My budget is about 1,000 dollars. Which would you recommend buying if I wanted to shoot every once in awhile. Also when I shop for either one , is there anything I should beware of or know about?

kek saw this on /g/

Kek, as my shit 4chan mobile app showed I was on /k/ then posted to /g/
>>
>>33234673
where do you plan on finding either that isnt a turd for $1000?
>>
>>33234673
c96, luger is an overhyped meme.
That said, the luger is more ergonomic to most.
>>
>>33234717 I could settle for either one, but the issue that aren't true red 9s over a 1,000 easily? But I would rather have one in 9mm , Also I do not mind if all parts are not matching
>>
>>33234727
If you can't find either in shootable condition for 1k or under, you aren't trying hard enough
>>
>>33234727
I thought that non matching part lugers or C96 could be had for less than a thousand

Get a Red9 or you are smalltime
>>
>>33234753
Just because you can shoot it doesnt mean its not a piece of shit
>>
>>33234753
What would be the best place to try find either one in a shootable condition for under 1k as all the online sites are well into the 2k-3k
>>
>>33234810
you really cant for the most part, hes full of shit. You would have a hard time finding nearly any luger that isnt totally fucked for under 1400 at the low end
>>
>>33234895
Would it be the same for a C96 as well?
>>
>>33234925
C96 is more expensive I think, granted I dont really know anything about them
>>
>>33235004
Damn
>>
>>33234810
Stalk gunborker and other online auction houses.
and gunshows
and local gun shops
and pawn shops.
I never said it would be easy or quick, patience is the most important virtue of the jew
>>
>>33235065
oh also forget about getting one in 9mm for anything close to a decent price
>>
>>33235065
Thanks for the advice, I will keep it in mine
>>
>>33235076
Are even the rebored C96 to 9mm really costly?
>>
>>33235279
I've never heard of such a thing but it sounds pretty sketchy.
I generally stay far away from rechambers save a few notable exceptions.
The way I see it, a c96 is a every once in a while gun, you can afford to feed it special food
>>
>>33235345
That's a good point, and also the rebored isn't that sketchy as Mauser themselves actually rebored some of them during WW1 to 9mm as the 7.63 is really similar, but the issue is making sure that Mauser did it and not some retarded
>>
>>33234673
c96, but I'm biased.

You can find a mismatched bolo for under 1k for sure. I got a full-size with a few unmatched parts for $900.
>>
>>33235515
Thanks for the info, where did you find yours? And how is the bore?
>>
>>33234771
i bought two matching c96's for $600 apiece and turned the first into a DL-44
>>
>>33235065
This is good advice, especially the stalking gunbroker part. It'll give you a sense for the market.
>>
>>33235539
in what fucking decade
>>
>>33235539
You lucky mother fucker
>>
>>33235534
Gunbroker.

The bore is good. Shoots real nice groups.
>>
>>33235584
On GunBroker? I'm surprised, as when I look they are pushing the 1,500 to 2,500 range not sub 1,000
>>
>>33235563
a long long time ago, in a galaxy fa far away, at the gun shop I do IT work for, motherfucker
>>
>>33235563
The one that didn't happen because he had a friend or got insanely lucky.
Every single thread people discuss price there's one fuck who says "Well I got my mint condition 1942 Springfield M1 Garand five minutes ago for a half a jar of peanut butter and some gum"

You're a disgusting human being for molesting that poor relic with your normie pop culture movie fetish . 0 out of fucking ten.
>>
>>33235729
you're really not going to like it when i start on the second one, all matching bolo, even more screen accurate than the first

Also this is muh broom. The holster/harness I bought separate.

I would recommend getting a stock eventually if you do buy a c96 because the gun is way handier with it.
>>
>>33234925
I have a c96 I bought for $600, but the bore is entirely shot out and it keyholes at 10 yards. However a reboring with a barrel sleeve, or finding a new barrel should be under $200.
>>
>>33236758
Speaking of, I posted this in a qtddtott and was wondering if I should trade it off, I don't necessarily have the money to fix or shoot it, and it isn't matching, and the lanyard loop is broken off. What do /k/? A vz61 seems to be scratching my surplus-but-don't-go-broke-on-ammo itch right now, but I don't want to lose it if I am never going to find one again.

>>33236807
A broomhandle in the hand is worth two in the bush. Or something.
