good, good. the only thing wrong is the clips for the Mauser Broomhandle C96, the the Third Reich only supplyed its soldiers with the 1909 model. consequently it had only a fixed ten round box magazine and was chambered to 9mm Luger and had a wooden holster that could double as a stock. The 1890 C96 had detachable ten round magazine and was chambered to the 7.62x23 cartridge (much higher velocity with more ft/lbs of impact, it was closer to a small rifle cartridge and is one of the few handgun rounds that is bottle-necked. The Russian Tokarev TT33 is chambered to the similar 7.62x25TT) and also had the wooden holster. The only leather holster issued was to pilots (1909 mod again) and those Mausers had an extended ten-and-one-eigth-inch barrel as opposed to the normal eight.....
sorry for the lecture, I like it.

Except that due to shortages, variants were issued. Especially on the Eastern Front. Also, due to many private purchases (mostly by officers), weapons like the 7.62x23 mm C96 Mauser were used.
So it's unusual, but not wrong.
...and a great piece!
