Odd little .22
 

I picked up this odd little 22 the other day. I was hoping someone here may know a little more about it. Its a Romerwerk and I read that they were made around 1924-26.

Hi,

Ian Hogg wrote a small part on them in his 'German Handguns' catalog. According to him these pistols were often delivered with 2 barrels, the longer target shooting barrel (as shown here) and a shorter 'self defense' barrel (also shown).

neat gun...
 

hi to all, pretty neat little gun..probably well built, but couldn't compete with the large factories and bad economy of the time...kinda like, like, now!! :( ... Best to all.til...lat'r...GT:jumper:

Steven,

Could you please post detail pictures of all the proof marks? The visible c/B marks seem odd for a 1920s pistol manufactured in Suhl, and there may be something enlightening here.

Really, there are no other proofs, such as a c/U, or a c/G on the barrel??

Nope nothing else. The small barrel is serialized to match the rest of the gun. The only proofs are c/B.
