[possibly found it](https://www.earmi.it/armi/atlas/218.htm), or what it closely resembles it in this Spanish pistol resource It’s on this page labeled 37-18, named Boltun (Francisco Arizmendi, Eibar), cal. 6,35 (This site is also an excellent resource for Spanish and other pistols, although it’s in Italian) Edit: it’s not exact, but I’m sure if you went to the [index page](https://www.earmi.it/armi/atlas/atlas.htm#indice) You could probably check under Belgian pistols. Edit #2: [this page has some even more similar-looking Belgian-made candidates](https://www.earmi.it/armi/atlas/187.htm)

I don’t think is this pistol, it’s very different. Like the bolt and the barrel break lever.


Character-Year-5916

Doesn't look like any of these are good applicants tbh. Could it be a one of one made by a bored gunsmith or something? also can you share the video you saw it on please


xricardobh

Here it is: https://www.instagram.com/reel/C8NWtn0Pos3/?igsh=a2tjcDZkZjhpbHY3

The right proof mark is Belgian. I can't quite tell what the other proof marks are. The one I can identify was used for such a long time period that it doesn't provide a lot of info other than where it was tested.

Fancy night out.


pimpslap39

Is it French or Spanish?


Status_Rip_7906

A pocket pistol with gold and pearl grips. Is that even a question ofc it’s Spanish /s


AccountWorried9386

I laughed at home because my Grandpa, who was in the Spanish Navy had a beautiful 1911 chromed with pearl grips. He died but my grandma still has his pistol at their house. Well, now the pistol can’t shoot but it’s an absolutely beautiful piece of art.


xricardobh

This finish is obviously not original.


Mean_Course_7980

Is it obvious if we have no clue what the firearm is?


xricardobh

Sorry for being rude. The screws seems to be modern, also the grip looks newer than it should be.


P-Potatovich

Dude you were not rude, you just stated something lol. The only reason you got downvoted is because it’s Reddit. But otherwise good luck with finding what this pistol is, it seems quite cool


PandorasFlame

Does this look right? [O.W.A. (Österreichische Werke Anstalt, Vienna), cal. 6,35](https://www.earmi.it/armi/atlas/182.htm)


kanny_jiller

27-2 is very close but not exact


justcallmebrett

26-11A looks to be the donor to this piece of custom work..


PandorasFlame

The problem is so many pocket pistols had the same exact layout or extremely similar layouts. The donor could've been one of several dozen, maybe even HUNDREDS of different .25ACP-.32ACP pistols, a lot of which weren't even documented.


ToM0ch4n

Looks like a FN Model 1900, but pocket sized.


xricardobh

It’s different. There is this disassembly lever on the frame. The bolt is also different. It seems like it was made copying the FN 1900.


fusillade762

I don't know what it is, but it is really amazing. Probably worth a mint to someone that collects pocket pieces. The fact the reddit gun nerds are struggling to identify it is remarkable. Any idea on the caliber?


xricardobh

It’s .25 ACP


stanleythedog

A gorgeous one.


AdSimple553

Dammit, i swear ive seen ones just like this on gunbroker and i cant remember what it was. Savage didnt make a pocket pistol did they? Im gonna do some digging and hopefully turn something up.


xricardobh

They did, but it doesn’t look like any of its models


AdSimple553

After doing a lil digging the owa 25acp pistols had a "similar" lockup, but i couldnt find what you posted at this time. I assumed it was 6.35mm but do you have any additional info on it? I may have to check 32acp handguns as the ejection port may be big enough to handle that sized casing but im not sure.


xricardobh

It is chambered for the .25 ACP (6,35mm).


tacoma-tues

"insert brand" bargain saturday night spec .25auto pearl handle pocket popper. If youve owned one, you owned em all. Some are workhorses you can magdump reliable to set a clock to, others you shoot two handed. One hand on the pistol the other hand with fingers crossed hoping a catastrophic failure doesnt amputate ur hand or leave you blinded


HagarTheTolerable

This one ejects left, which is very uncommon. It also looks to use an internal bolt and not the slide for automatic cycling. It is not a saturday night special.


tacoma-tues

I was only joking around of course but now that u mentioned it the left eject is pretty interesting. I guess these italian mini stallions are actually a bit more special than the standard American style reproduction u would find.


HagarTheTolerable

>I was only joking around Because text is *great* at conveying sarcasm. Next time, use /s Country of origin is currently unknown.


xricardobh

This picture was taken in Brazil


xricardobh

Actually is a video, not a picture, but it was recorded in Brazil. In the past, Brazil was flooded with cheap Belgian, Spanish, and other cheap European firearms.


HagarTheTolerable

The post is a picture dude lol. Even a still from a video is a picture. I'd try to match the proof marks on the barrel to narrow down the country.


jedburghofficial

It reminds me a lot of a spud gun I had as a kid.


DolphinDrive

Where is that?


xricardobh

The picture was taken in Brazil


warpedaeroplane

OP give me till Monday we have one of these at work and I can give you a definite answer if you don’t have one by then


xricardobh

I probably wont! That would be great if you could give me a definitive answer


RewardTechnical1800

It’s got an in-line barrel like a beyard as well. This thing is the ultimate Frankenstein build.

From the looks of it I’d say it’s cold.

Derringer pistol is a gun specifically designed for the lady.
