Bergmann 1896 - 6.5mm Bergmann

In the late 19th century, German gunsmith Louis Schmeisser designed a line of early semi-automatic pistols, which were produced by Theodor Bergmann. The very first Bergmann Pistol was the 1892/1893 model, which did not have a number (and was in many ways just a prototype). Following that was the No. 1 pistol, also known as the 1894 model. The Bergmann 1896 was Theodor Bergmann's first commercial success. The Bergmann 1896 was produced in small numbers in 1896, in three calibers: 5mm Bergmann (designated No. 2), 6.5mm Bergmann (designated No. 3), and 8×22mm Bergmann (designated No. 4). In 1897, an updated version with a detachable magazine was introduced, known as the Bergmann 1897 (or No. 5) but it was less successful. Behind it followed the M1898 and M1899 prototypes, until the new Model 1901 has not been entered.
