dalbert Posted November 12, 2025 Report Share Posted November 12, 2025 I'm hoping someone here can help me out. I would like to publish photos of 2 different styles of C96 Mauser Broomhandle pistol sights in a chapter I am doing for a book, and it will possibly be published in a journal, also. If you have a Broomhandle with either a 500-meter or 1000-meter sight, I would appreciate if you could reach out to me. I would credit your name for any photo used. Thanks In Advance!

There are a lot of variations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalbert Posted November 13, 2025 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2025 Thanks for the link. I have photos of both sights, but they are copyrighted, like the content at the link. I am looking for someone to take a pic of their own example sights so that I can publish the photo without worrying about a copyright.

Skip Greenwade Posted November 18, 2025 Report Share Posted November 18, 2025 Hi David, I have a “Red 9” C96 with the 500-meter rear sight and would be happy to provide photos if they might be of use/interest. Best, Skip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalbert Posted November 21, 2025 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2025 Hi Skip, Yes, please send me a photo of the top of the sight showing the meter markings, if you would please to my email listed below. I greatly appreciate it. Another member sent me a pic of a 1000 yard example. Thank you very much! David Albert dalbert@sturmgewehr.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
