It appears to use a modified Luger magazine and is chambered for the 7.65mm Luger cartridge. The grip is very much Luger-like, in part because the use of a Luger magazine requires using the same grip angle as the Luger. The pistol is a short recoil action with a pivoting locking block much like what the P38 would later use. It is a very comfortable gun in the hand, but was rejected in Swiss pistol trials.<\/p>\n<p>Related:<\/p>\n<p>M\u00fcller 1895 Pistol: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=WnnrJcO1TVw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=WnnrJcO1TVw<\/a><br \/>\nEarly Automatic Pistol Cartridges: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=msQI6ongp24\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=msQI6ongp24<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>http:\/\/www.patreon.com\/ForgottenWeapons Cool Forgotten Weapons Merch! http:\/\/shop.bbtv.com\/collections\/forgotten-weapons Bernhard M\u00fcller designed this locked-breech pistol in 1902, seemingly a hybrid of the Luger and P38 (of course, the P38 did not exist at that time).
