Fleming registered Mauser broomhandle Schnellfeuer Machine Pistol with reproduction shoulder stock. Mauser banner logo on left receiver panel just to the rear of the selector switch. Right receiver panel has standard markings ”WAFFENFABRIK MAUSER OBERNDORF A. NECKAR D.R.P.u.A.P.” with typical "(Crown) / U" and Mauser marking over chamber. One Mauser marked 20 round magazine included. There are relatively few of this model of machine gun in the National Firearms Act registry, and this fast-firing pistol has a cyclic rate of 800-1100 rounds per minute when fired in fully automatic mode. It is tremendously impressive to shoot at the range. These pistols were manufactured and marketed worldwide, primarily for police and government use. The doctrine was to intimidate any potentially unruly crowd of Anarchists. Police were trained to turn these guns sideways when contemplating "crowd control", as this harnessed the "muzzle climb" to advantage, spreading the projectiles to where they would be effective instead of going overhead into the air. Electronic NFA registry indicates “FLEMING,WILLIAM DBA FLEMING FIREARMS” as the manufacturer. PROVENANCE: From the machine gun collection of noted William “Happiness is a Warm Machine Gun” Fleming. CONDITION: Overall appearance and finish is combination of extremely fine lustrous with light scratches and gray patina, particularly at the high edges. Magazine is pretty much a brown patina but appears serviceable. Grips are very fine with some handling marks. Reproduction stock fit onto pistol is snug and positive. Stock has a slight crack on each side parallel to the bore-line which does not affect serviceability. Bore is extremely good, turning dark, with evidence of shooting corrosive ammunition and leaving uncleaned. Bolt face extremely fine. Mechanics are crisp and positive. This is a select fire machine gun. A really fun gun to take to the range which attracts a lot of attention. THIS IS A NATIONAL FIREARMS ACT ITEM AND REQUIRES BATF APPROVAL PRIOR TO TRANSFER. THIS ITEM IS FULLY TRANSFERABLE ON AN ATF FORM 3 OR 4. JWK 2025-09-124.
