This video analyzes the Schulhof 1884, Type IIa Manual Repeating Pistol, a rare firearm designed by Austrian Josef Schulhof. The pistol features a toggle lock mechanism similar to Winchester rifles and a tubular magazine loaded via a gate. The Type IIa improved upon the Type I by separating the trigger from the ring trigger for better control and accuracy. Approximately 50 of these 1884 models were produced, with variations in magazine types, including rotary and en bloc clip fed examples. Despite failing to gain military or commercial traction, these pistols represent an important evolutionary step in self-loading handgun development.
