This video showcases an exceptionally early example of the Mars pistol, serial number 4, designed by Sir Hugh Gabbett-Fairfax. Dating back to its initial design in 1898, this pistol was a formidable firearm for its time, with the .45 caliber version rivaling the power of a .45 Winchester Magnum. The video highlights unique features of this early model, including a longer barrel, a tangent-style rear sight, and a 3-lug bolt, distinguishing it from the approximately 80 Mars pistols produced. The firearm is chambered for the .360 Mars cartridge and is noted as being up for sale by RIA.
