This video explores the Little Tom pistol, designed by Alois Tomiška. It highlights the pistol's unique reloading system and its distinction as the world's first commercially produced DAO (Double-Action Only) automatic pistol. Produced in .25 ACP and .32 ACP calibers during the 1920s, the Little Tom predates the Walther PP as a double-action automatic. Despite its innovations, the pistol was not as popular as its Walther counterparts, with a total production of around 35,000 units. The video also mentions Tomiška's later work at the CZ factory, contributing to the development of CZ pistols.
