Restoration of antique MAGNIFICENT STEYR M1912 A DESIGN COUP FOR AUSTRIA-HUNGARY More than 300,000 copies have been produced, the surplus M1912 is not uncommon and is a coveted collectible. It was a magnificent pistol developed at the beginning of the 20th century, during the fermentation of armaments, when countries of all stripes competed for the development or adoption of semi-automatic replacement of their outdated revolvers. However, Steyr rarely gets a footnote in references to small arms of the First and Second World Wars. Officially adopted by Austria-Hungary, Romania and Chile, the M1912 went through two world wars. When Austria was absorbed by the Third Reich in 1938, Germany thought so much about the design that Mauser converted the barrels of the available M1912 from a 9mm Steyr to a 9mm Luger and designated the bolt “08”. His design evolved into the Steyr, starting with one of the first successful military automatic pistols, the M1900/M1901 Mannlicher, progressing to the Roth-Steyr M1907 (issued for the Austro-Hungarian cavalry), and finally appeared as the M1912 Steyr. The design of the M1912 is attributed to Czech engineer Karel Krnke, who also designed the Roth-Steyr M1907. Both have a rotating barrel with intricately crafted cams and locking lugs to lock the barrel when sliding. In fact, both military pistols exhibit a high degree of sophisticated machining, hand-fitting and finishing, which was the norm in that era.
