The caliber is 9mm Bermann, but I believe that it will interchange with 9mm Largo. Not sure that I will ever shoot it, but ammo is available.

I got some dimensions from a Danish collector, but he only had a broken pin to measure so some dimensions were missing. I made a few brass prototypes, and when I had one I believed in I made one of steel. Then I found another Bergmann collector in TX, and he arranged for a gunsmith to make another pin and a locking pin, using original parts as a template. The locking pin in it now is one I made, using the pin from TX as a template but with a slightly different design. I also had to make the brass escutcheons and the grip screw, as the old parts wouldn't fit the repro grips. In other words, it was a long journey to get it right.
