Mannlicher Model 1901 & 1905 Pistols

  • The Model 1901 and 1905 automatic pistols were the final development of the Mannlicher system. In this iteration they used internal magazines, a straight walled 7.65mm cartridge, and a delayed blowback system in which the slide had to overcome a spring-loaded wedge before it could open.
    The Model 1901 was a compact version with an 8-round magazine, and the 1905 was a larger frame with a 10-round capacity, although both use identical mechanisms. The guns were moderately successful on the commercial market, although the only military adoption of the design was form Argentina, which bought about 6,000 of the 1905 model guns. These were surplussed onto the US commercial market in the 1960s, and are generally distinctive for the bright spot on the right side where the Argentine crest was ground off prior to sale (although some have been refinished to hide this).
    Both the 1901 and 1905 are very comfortable, sleek and elegant guns to handle and fire. For some high speed footage of an Argentine 1905 firing, check here: • Slow Motion: Steyr-Man...

    Honestly if reproductions of the 1901 were made today I would carry it. It's simple, elegant, and the most beautiful gun I have personally ever seen.

    • @davidblair9877
      @davidblair9877 2 роки тому +3

      Same. I don’t even have a license yet, but I’d get one just for this beauty (with grip safety and in a more common cartridge).

  • @jimshort4921
    @jimshort4921 7 років тому +20

    For those asking about the button on the right side of the pistol, I believe that is how the unfired cartridges are removed from the gun. With the slide back, the button is pulled downward. This would move the cartridge interrupter down and out of the way to eject the remaining cartridges in the internal magazine.

    Ian, I learned from an old Russian gunsmith that if you take a STEEL cased AK-47 round and carefully cut off the front of the case just in front of the "neck",you can slide this into the chamber,allowing you to fire more readily available 32acp.rounds...only downside is that you are limited to 5rds instead of 10... definitely cheaper shooting.

    As I recall our mutual friends over at C&Rsenal did a video on this fine pistol (the 1905 to be more precise) a while back.
    Shoots very well indeed, although it seems the best way to aim is to aim it like you would a sword instead of a pistol.

    Hmm, I just noticed there's something distinctly 1907 Roth-Krnka-y about the grip on this particular model. Was that shape just fashionable at the time, I wonder, or was someone copying someone's homework? :)
    (I have no problem with that either way, I wish all handgun grips were like my Roth's. By far the comfiest pistol handle I know of.)

      I have a 90 year old pistol that I carried for awhile. An Ortgies Deutschwerks Automatic Pistol in .32 auto. Only parts not original are the firing pin and striker spring, replaced for wear, and a replacement barrel to mate better with modern .32 auto ammo. Still have the original parts in case I ever decide to sell the gun.
      Possibly the best shooter from my small collection of antique pocket pistols.

  • @antoniofdez620
    @antoniofdez620 7 років тому

    I wonder if this delay mechanism really worked because if you were able to pull the slide by the force of your hand that means that is not very stong.

    • @SpawnofHastur
      @SpawnofHastur 2 роки тому

      It doesn't need to be super strong, it just needs to delay the opening of the breech until pressure has dropped, which happens quite quickly.
      If you get any other delayed blowback firearm and have removed the magazine and cleared it, you can actually force the action open with a dowel down the barrel - RyeonHam and The Chap have both done videos demonstrating that in practice.

      My guess would be that the crest was used as evidence of government ownership, and grinding it off indicated legitimate sale.
