1909 Schüler. The marking Bréveté means "patented" in French, and it's followed by the patent number.

I can think of a poker game I had the misfortune of sitting in that I could have used two of those. Found out almost too late that the dealer and the others were running a shell game all of them were planning on sharing the pot at the end of the game but an accidental ace high straight ruined their plans when I cut and ran after raking the table

cool engineering. need to be very close range by the looks. A mate of mine was in a pub in Brisbane southside one night when a stranger shot one of the regulars in the belly. The bouncers beat the living daylights out of the culprit and gave the single shot home made pistol to the police when they arrived. he got 9 months probation & the shot victim has a lifetime sentence getting his stomach drained 1 day a week every week for the rest of his natural days. He had simply excused himself, according to witnesses, while simply trying to get through the crowd to the bar for more drinks. Laws!

3"" barrel and .25ACP is a close range but found it interesting that is single/double acting. This one is in excellent shape but not sure those are stock grips. Probably would be good for a card game gone wrong...not much else, imho. Do like the mechanism though as it looks robust and reliable.

Ranald, I thought Aussies had pretty tough laws on guns and their misuse after Port Aurthur and the amnesty for citizens a decade ago? Too bad the bouncers didn't accidentally finish the job. Like this joker that just shot up a synagogue in Pittsburgh, 11 dead, six wounded and trauma galore at a baby naming ceremony..and only 29 federal counts. We'll be paying through the nose for him for years.

Definitely not a revolver.

The man drew his "linear" and fired four shots.

Good call Radioman, my error. Can't be a revolver if there's no revolving cylinder. Handgun, pistol, or even something more descriptive like "4-barrel single shot firearm" would be more fitting here.
