Roth Steyr 1907 at a Run-n-Gun Steel Match
This video features a run-and-gun steel match utilizing a WWI-era Roth Steyr 1907 pistol. The presenter details the pistol's history with the Austro-Hungarian cavalry, its durability, the 8mm Steyr cartridge, and its innovative "safe-action" firing mechanism, which is compared to modern systems. The unique 10-round stripper clip with a movable follower is also highlighted. Despite a 17th place finish out of 21 competitors, the presenter expresses satisfaction with a 10th place on the first stage, particularly noting how strong and weak hand requirements leveled the playing field.
