German Jager Pistol
This video explores the German "Jager" pistol, manufactured by the Jager company, known for its sporting arms and established in 1901 in Suhl, Germany. During World War One, Jager pivoted to military needs, designing this pistol for officers. Though not officially adopted by the German army, several thousand were privately purchased and used by officers. The pistol's unique construction features two stamped sideplates and separate milled front and rear straps, a pioneering use of stampings for major components that remains distinctive. The video promises a closer look at this mechanically interesting firearm.
