Alkar Cartridge Counter .25ACP
This video delves into the history and unique features of the Alkar Cartridge Counter pistol chambered in .25 ACP. It highlights the founding of Alkartasuna SA by former Astra employees and their pivot to firearms production, particularly during WWI. The description emphasizes the Alkar pistol's unusual grip safety and its innovative cartridge counting system, featuring viewing windows on the grip that numerically indicate the remaining rounds, including a '?' for an empty magazine with a round possibly still in the chamber. The pistol was likely subcontracted to minimize tooling costs, and its .25 ACP blowback action is noted.
