This video delves into the fascinating and rare 1941 Sosso Italian prototype pistol, designed by Giulio Sosso. It highlights the pistol's unique 21-segment chain-driven magazine system, an unconventional approach to ammunition feeding that aimed to overcome traditional magazine spring issues. The description notes that only five of these experimental semiautomatic pistols were manufactured by FNA Brescia, with most presented to influential figures. The video suggests that the pistol's complex internal mechanism, likely revealed during an examination, explains its lack of adoption and serial production. It also contrasts the Sosso's rarity and potential cost with more common firearms like the Beretta 1934.
