Joe, you're becoming narcissistic.joe n said:Here is part of a post sent to me on another forum.
"According to Ian V. Hogg the Fritz Langenhan Selbstladenpistole (self-loading pistol) sometimes called the Army Model, was developed in 1914 and patented in 1915. It was accepted for military applications by the Prussian army, and military pistols have a c/letter acceptance mark on the left frame. Yours has standard commercial proofs, but no acceptance mark--I was hoping for another pistol to add to the database.
These guns are chambered for 7.65 Auto. If you are planning to shoot it, you should be sure that the takedown screw at the back of the slide is firmly tightened--if it becomes loose, the hinged finger-piece can flip up on its screw axle and allow the breechblock to recoil into your face."
So this is all I know really, apparently also a real Bich to put back together too. My face is ugly enough, don't need a chunk of metal embedded there too
Seriously though, properly assembled this thing should be a safe shooter.
There are plenty of guns that hot loaded or assembled incorrectly can be dangerous but they are still used commonly.
I'd be doing my homework, testing it in a safe environment and then making the decision whether to deactivate it.
How about you see if you can gather more info too.
