Roth-Theodorovic Prototype Pistol
This video explores the Roth-Theodorovic Prototype Pistol, a rare firearm developed in Austria. The pistol's lineage traces back to Georg Roth's company, which acquired the patent from inventor Wasa Theodorovic and had it developed by engineer Karel Krnka. Approximately 80 of these pistols were produced, with each exhibiting unique developmental improvements. This particular example, serial number 77, showcases a refined fire control system with single/double action and a decocker, along with a non-factory grip safety patented by Tambour and installed by a contemporary gunsmith. The video also references related Roth-Steyr models and Frommer pistols, highlighting the design's influence.
