Early 1920s Production - Post War -1920s-1930 production were Known as the "Bolo" model, slightly smaller frame than the wartime / prewar C96 due to the Treaty of Versailles restrictions.

Better condition than the one in the local museum, contributed by an old lady whose father fought in the Irish Civil War, when ordered to "dump arms" he shoved his into the thatch roof of his cottage attic
