This video explores an experimental 1902-made C96 Mauser pistol, nicknamed the "Joint Safety" variant. Designed for civilian carry, it features a lighter, more compact build with a smaller grip, shorter barrel, and a 6-round magazine. The most notable feature is its unique experimental safety, intended for one-handed operation. However, this safety proved problematic, causing injury to the user with each shot. Due to its impracticality, only a few of these variants were ever produced before the design was abandoned. The video highlights the historical context and the reasons behind this rare firearm's limited production.
