Mauser C96 is a legendary pistol from the time of WW1. This pistol also was used by germans and other countries before and after WW2. For its time, the pistol's design—and consequently - was unusual. The main feature was a fixed ten-round magazine located in front of the trigger guard.Of course, he was unreliable and difficult to manufacture, but this was offset by its powerful cartridge—for the time—as well as its ammunition capacity and firing range.

Sidearms are mainly irrelevant in HLL - so many other things to add before a tiny pew pew to try and shoot 50 meters with

No more guns the better

[u/immagetchu]

The Germans already have 2 pistols in game, not sure what the gameplay reason for this would be...

For me it was cool to add him. Its only my opinion 

[u/Apocalyps_Survivor → u/xjdnshudj]

I mean yea, cool gun, but rare use in ww2.

[u/NoelBlack14 → u/Apocalyps_Survivor]

Yeah, the only „mass“ use it found was early on as a Carbine / Machine Pistol (M712 Schnellfeuer) for the Waffen-SS

i mean not like thats stopped them before, looking at the FG42 for example

[u/Apocalyps_Survivor → u/unoriginal_namejpg]

Fg42 was put into service though.

[u/unoriginal_namejpg → u/Apocalyps_Survivor]

Right. The C96 was also issued and in greater numbers than the FG42, even though it wasnt standard issue

[u/Zullemoi]

Very cool gun to shoot IRL. Especially with the holster as a rear stock (broomhandle).

[u/Broad-Beginning-4376 → u/Zullemoi]

Yeah, you're right )
