Weapon: Pistol 08, Swiss Modification Calibre: 7.65mm Para First Issued: 1908 Permission required: Ger: Waffenerwerbschein der zuständigen Polizeibehörde.

Description:

The weapon shown (weapon number 8277) was developed from a German Pistole 08 (P08) of 1916. A barrel in caliber 7.65mm was mounted, also the safety was adapted (installation of a grip back safety analogous to the Swiss Parabellum pistols). Strangely enough, the safety now works wrong; when the word "secured" is displayed, the gun is unsecured and ready to fire. The weapon should thus comply with the Swiss regulations on off-duty shooting. The Pistole 08 (P08) was available after World War II in relatively large numbers and at reasonable prices, as the technology was outdated by developments during the war years (for example Pistole 38 (P38)).   These conversions were made exclusively for private individuals (shooters), never for the Swiss Army.   On the side the owner had his name immortalized on a plaque ("Fritz Troller, Solothurn").
