Lot 1358 | Repetierpistole System Laumann, Modell 1891
Repetierpistole System Laumann, Modell 1891
Kal. 8mmSchönberger, Nr. 29, nummerngleich. Blanker Lauf, Länge 112mm. Fünfschüssig. Korn mit Schwalbenschwanz. Mehrladepistole mit ringförmigem Hebel zur Betätigung des Zylinderverschlusses. Ohne Beschriftung der linken Schlossplatte. Brünierung in alter Zeit erneuert, links am Magazinkasten fleckig, gering dünner vorne am Griff. Verschluss blank. Verschlusshebel brüniert. Sicherung und Abzug gelb angelassen. Schrauben großteils gebläut. Erneuerte Nussholzgriffschalen mit Fischhaut. Fangring. Dazu eine Kopie der Konstruktionszeichnung.
Zweifellos war Josef Laumann der Konstrukteur. Inwieweit die Gebr. Schönberger als Geldgeber daran beteiligt waren, ist unklar. Vgl. dazu Mötz/Schuy, Vom Ursprung der Selbstladepistole, ab Seite 115 die ausführliche, bebilderte Geschichte dieser extrem seltenen und weltweit kaum erhältlichen Waffe.

A Laumann system repeating pistol, Mod. 1891
Cal. 8mmSchönberger, SN. 29, matching numbers. Bartrel length 112 mm, bright bore. Five shots. Dove-tailed front sight. Finger-operated bolt action. The left side of the lock plate unmarked. Antique restoration incl. rebluing, the finish a bit spotty in the magazine area, some thinning on the front strap. Polished bolt. The finger ring blued, small parts strawed, most bolts nitre blued. The checkered walnut grips a later replacement. Lanyard ring. Lot includes a copy of the construction drawings.
There is no doubt that this gun was designed by Josef Laumann. The level of involvement of his financiers, the Schönberger brothers, is unknown. See Mötz/Schuy, "Vom Ursprung der Selbstladepistole", pp. 115f, where this gun and its history are described in detail. An ultra-rare collector's item!
WBK: Attention - For this gun we will need to obtain an export license for you, based on your import permit (if needed in your country) or through your firearms dealer - more info here
