I've got two Sarco imports I bought about twenty years ago. I've always wondered about their story - probably some variation of an East German detainment...

I was giving them a detail clean the other day and marveling at the intricate design and manufacture. Thinking it was semi-crazy to build a war implement like that. Wondering why the early designers went straight to the elegant designs instead of the brutish simplicity of later designs (thinking stampings and such)...

Anyway, I thought I'd seek out a fount of knowledge to help me learn the technicalities and lore of such an interesting pistol.
