          Bill,

          Where do you find them? In such good condition too!

          Were these used by all branches of the Wehrmacht? For active service or dress wear? I can understand someone carrying one of these in a pocket as a back up but given the ineffectivness of the cartridge and the general 'lack of presence' of the pistol itself I can't imagine anyone trusting their life to it.

          Keep them coming, I always know I'm in for a treat when I see one of your postings.

          Peter

            Peter, I would assume that most .25 cal. weapons were purchased by high ranking officers.. There were a few 6.35mm pistols actually procured by the Wehrmacht. I will go with the old saying "Higher the Rank Smaller the Pistol"---"Smaller the pistol Higher the Rank" ...BILL

              I've got similar, made by Mauser, but with quite nice dedication
