Last gun I bought was a broom handle Mauser

[Ken The Kanuck]

I always liked the look of these things, plus I like old guns.

Anyone else own one?

Will your government let you keep it?

(If not, send it to me -- I'll keep it for you.)

Here is a picture, you have to admit it is a pretty cool gun.

Nice one Ken! Is it 9mm or .30 Luger?

Has to be a .30 Luger -- if it was a 9mm it would have a large number "9" carved in the grips.

Good point Vern. Sometimes my awesome typing skill/speed outruns my brain wave activity...

Very nice. The stock adds a lot of collector value too.

It's a 7.63 but I also have a 9 mm receiver for it. The original 9 mm were called a red 9 as Vern indicated.

That is great...I've always wanted a Red 9 broomhandle. The only fiearm missing from my collection,,,except for a full-auto ww2 U.S. Navy Thompson...

Prices were hitting over $3800 about 10 years ago and I missed out...
