This video examines the 7.65mm Mars pistol, a Czechoslovakian firearm produced by Kohout & Spol. The Mars line evolved from the earlier Slavia pistols, which were inspired by the vest-pocket Browning designs. The 7.65mm Mars is noted as being similar to the FN 1910, featuring a barrel-mounted mainspring. Approximately 3,800 units were manufactured between 1937 and 1947, with production ceasing for a period during World War II when the company refused to supply guns to the German military. The pistol is described as functional but heavy and inelegant, akin to a Ruby pistol in handling.
