This video explores the W+F Bern P47, an experimental gas-delayed blowback pistol developed in Switzerland during the 1940s as a potential replacement for the Luger. The P47 featured a unique gas-delayed action, predating later designs like the H&K P7. The presenter discusses its historical context, its comparison to previous Bern designs based on the Browning High Power, and its performance when tested. Although the gas delay system didn't offer a substantial advantage over the ultimately adopted SIG P210, the P47 represents an interesting development in Swiss firearm design.
