J. M. Browning's Luger Design

While at Winchester, Borchardt was designing revolvers. They can be seen at the Winchester museum in Cody, Wyoming. For what ever reason, Winchester never put them into production. This may have had something to do with Borchardt leaving Winchester to go to Sharps. His timing was not too good as Sharps went belly up and Borchardt then went to Lowe. The rest is history.
