Description:

Designed by Thomas Martin and produced by Etienne Bernardon, the Model 1907 is credited as France's first domestic production semi-automatic pistol design, showing parallels to Browning's Model 1900. Fixed sights, with "* L AUTOMATIQUE FRANCAIS" on the right side of the slide and "*BERNARDON-MARTIN*SAINT-ETIENNE*/*BREVETE-S.G.D.G.*" on the left. Grips are checkered hard rubber, with the "BM" monogram at the top of each. Another feature unusual for this particular gun is the fixed magazine and top loading configuration

Rating Definition:

Very good, incomplete, with 70% original blue finish. Displaying areas of edge wear and cycling marks, scattered small dings and some very light pitting. Grips are fair, with the right panel broken in half at the screw, and the left having several small chips. Mechanically very good.
