Our recent Northern Maine find. We specialize primarily in antique tools, but when the opportunity arose to purchase this unique leather case, we decided to take a chance and buy it. We do not deal much in militaria or gun related items so we took this to our local gun dealer for identification. After discussing this with his business partner and searching the "net" for confirmation, he told me it was a case for a Mauser C-96 broom handle. Other than the two tab...s for the end cover needing to be restitched, this is in nice condition. There is a slight musty smell we are trying to air out. Measures 28 1/4" long. The end cover measures 3 1/4" x 8 3/4". The nose end measures 2 3/4" x 3 1/4". As shown one of the leather tabs has the number 26 over 175 FD. If you have any questions please feel free to ask.
