That Mauser is not a M712 (no selector switch) but the barrel is too long for it to be a Bolo, which is the only other variant that the C96 page lists as having been available with a 20 round magazine. Any ideas as to which version it is? I'd rather not change it until I can actually identify the variant.--PistolJunkie 04:44, 13 December 2010 (UTC)
