Ten shots quick

[Niederlander]

Pitspitr was kind enough to let me shoot his 1907's last Saturday.  Pretty neat little pistols!  Obviously very well made.

... and both of us were impressed by how well they shot. They are what I'd call "Get off me!" guns and yet they shot as well as most full sized guns! Even the poorest shooting of the 3 shot more than well enough for their designed purpose.


I had read somewhere about an old time lawman who shot a man he was trailing at 100 yards with one. The first time took them out and tested them I had to try the shot. It can definitely be done!

I will be doing a Zoot comparison this week between the Savage, a 1903 Colt Pocket Hammerless and a Mauser HSc, should be a lot of fun!

The earliest one on the bottom shoots the best, though it has the rather disconcerting habit of firing if you drop the slide release with one in the pipe.  I suspect that it still has the reminents of gummy old oil acculilation in the lock, as the center one had the same habit until I got it really clean

I shot my 1917 in a retro 1970/80's match this weekend,  it performed perfectly!
