A Bern Arms Factory Parabellum Mod. 06/29 target pistol Cal. 7.65 mm Luger, No. 73412; only the grip has a serial number; all other parts are unnumbered. Polished barrel, length 20 cm. Eight-shot capacity. No firing marks. Swiss cross on the coat of arms on the front sight. Adjustable U-shaped sports rear sight, raised front sight. Grip safety. The original bluing shows virtually no signs of wear. Perfectly preserved dark brown plastic grip panels with fish-scale texture and W+F logo. Authentic, nickel-plated folding magazine with a dark brown plastic base. Gun in like-new condition, extremely rare! In the mid-1940s, W+F Bern produced a very small series of sporting pistols with 17- or 20-cm-long barrels and fixed or adjustable sports sights, presumably exclusively for the national team. Heinrich Keller won the 1949 World Championship in Buenos Aires with a rifle like the one shown here. Upon returning home, the rifles were confiscated by W+F Bern and not sold until much later.
