Bell carried a Mauser C96 in 9mm Export caliber.




This weapon was quite popular in finnish lappland before WWII. Itīs very light to carry and so it was quite popular among local bear hunters when they shot bears from nest at winter time.




In the Export caliber also? Or 9x19?

I had a stocked Browning High Power for a time and it was, as you say, quite handy.

I have a hunch a modern "C96"-type w/ stock (basically, a centerfire AR7) would sell well for all the reasons the C96 appealed to Bell and the Sami's. In 9x19 and 10mm, what a handy woods gun, storable in the stock like the AR7. I'd buy one at least!
