Yes, Federal Arms CO (Cali) Imports from Chinese (PRC) PSB ( Public Security Bureau, or National Police). Avoided US GCAicon 68 Embargo on "Military Weapons". So Called "Bolo" Model ( different grip shape). Numbers restamped in typical Chinese Font stamps, scrubbing done either in China or in USAicon.

Some were drilled and re-rifled to 9mm Para, others were sleeved back to 7,63 Mauser, because of ratty sewer-pipe Barrels. Over all, a cheap and Nasty (But usually fireable) end for a C96. No way of knowing when it was made (original serial gone). Some are so worn internally that they will "double" or "triple" tap ( Not good if the AFTE is around....).
