[QUOTE="ScruffyLookingNH, post: 408992, member: 6563"] The Armoury in Brighton is amazing but ridiculously overpriced. A C96 "Broomhandle" Mauser is a work of art. And unless you find one in really ropey condition it a) would be too expensive to convert and b) would be an act of vadalism. The Sterling was produced in ridiculous quantities and as S8's brother rightly points out is far from rare. The C96 is not exactly rare but commands a hefty sum in good condition. Find a nice deac with matching serial numbers and you start at £1,500 and go up from there. I picked up a nice enough one but with some heavy pitting near the muzzle (all but one of the serial numbers match) and that set me back £750. I wanted one because they're are epically cool in their own right but I always knew it's what Han's blaster was based on. When one came up cheap enough I just had to have it. Really looking forward to seeing the result of this Sterling conversion! [/QUOTE]
