Some pocket pistols:
![]() ![]() This one is German. Can you tell me who the manufacturer is? Can't read what it says on the barrel. ![]() And I forgot to add this S&W revolver in my previous post. Sorry about that: Lovely engravings on it.

Great PICS! I believe many of those weapons have pages here on IMFDB. Now I just have to check to see how many there are.
But you're right. The Turkish museum has piss poor 'descriptions' of the various weapons. Heck we probably provide more detailed information on most of those weapons (i.e. the IMFDB membership). Great pics! Keep them coming!

The gold thing is a POF (Pakistani Ordnance Factory) SMG-PK. It appears they sell them in gold, but maybe the scrollwork is custom?
I'm not a fan of scrollwork like that, but the pattern on the Astra looks really good. |
