I look at that one and immediately wonder: Why copy features of Mauser M1896 on grips & hammer??? Is the designer trying to invoke warm memories of Mauser broomhandle to his pistol??? Or did he just like those features???

From very low overhang of rear grip frame, I wonder if this pistol shoots very low??? (Or do you have to hold it over your head to shoot it???)
