C96

0:0:0

The Mauser C96 (Construktion 96) is a self-loading handgun. It was one of the earliest self-loading handguns developed, and the earliest truly successful one, being adopted by many national militaries and remaining in service for over a half a century. The original weapon was chambered in 7.63x25mm Mauser, and fed from a 10-round integral magazine set slightly ahead of the pistol grip. It made use of a short-recoil system of operation.

Many variants and rechamberings of the weapon were developed, including 9x19mm and .45ACP, cavalry variants with much longer barrels, variants that fed from 20-round detachable magazines, and even a fully-automatic variant.

Battlefield 1
The C96 technically makes its second appearance in Battlefield 1 -- its first appearance was in Battlefield Heroes as one possible handgun used by the National Army. It appears to be the standard configuration of the weapon, with an integral magazine and standard-length barrel.
