    My P08 (Luger) once went `full auto´. Am very glad I wasn´t using the TM 33 round mag, as it flipped upwards, with the damage limited to the range ceiling. According to the relevant literature, the only known example of the `full auto´ LP08 (artillery Luger) was no better, as there was nothing to limit the rate of fire. The necessary `Reihenfeuer´ spare parts for the C96 quite often appear on the Germanicon eGun site (installation would be VERY illegal), and I don´t suppose it´d be much different. I´d say: give it a miss!
