Description:

This is a scarce example of a Bergmann Model 1896 No. 2 semi-automatic pistol manufactured by the firm of V. Charles Schilling in Suhl. The magazine is integral to the pistol and is located in front of the trigger, with a magazine cover that swings down. The pistol is equipped with the later style fixed trigger. The left side of the pistol has an oval shaped logo that depicts a "mountain man" holding a pick with sun rays showing from behind his back. The top of the oval is marked "GAGGENAU" and the lower area is marked "V.C.S./SUHL". "611" followed by a "crown/crown/U" proof on the left side of the barrel/receiver area, "PATENT/BREVETE/S.G.D.G" marked on the left front of the frame, with serial number "1206" on the right front of the frame. Checkered hard rubber grip panels with the Bergmann "B" monogram at the tops, and "1206" handwritten twice on the underside of the left grip panel.

Rating Definition:

Very fine, retains 85% original blue finish on the frame and barrel extension, most the refinished blue remaining on the barrel, with some scattered patches of light surface freckling. The left grip panel is excellent, the right grip panel is fine with a reglued separated middle and a few small chips at the top corners. Mechanically excellent.
