Rare Franz Pfannl Kolibri Model 1 Single Shot Pistol

Property from a Private Collector, Beaufort, SC Description: Rare Franz Pfannl Kolibri Model 1 Single Shot Pistol, this is a very rare example of a Kolibri Model 1 single shot pistol, designed by Franz Pfannl of Austria, measuring less than 1 3/4 in. long, with the bore measuring at only approximately 2mm, and the hammer doubling as a breech block. With this bore measurement, this pistol may have used some type of snap cap or blank rather than an actual cartridge such as the 2.7mm Kolibri. The only markings are on the checkered grips, with Kolibri on the left and Austria on the right. Measurements: Height: 1 1/8 in. x Width: 1 5/8 in. Condition: Good vintage condition, with some pitting to metal and light wear.
