Forgotten Weapons - Italin Vitali
Here is a link that is on the C96 web site that I thought was very interesting and thought some of the other forum members might also enjoy: HTTP://www.forgottenweapons.com/ital...li-1910-pistol

Very cool. By 1910, creator must have a few popular pistols to reference this design, so we see C96 type bolt lock, hold-open, pure grip combined with Browning's slide. Amazingly it has a double action trigger !

Wow!! That is a most interesting handgun. I have never heard of/seen one. So many creative minds out there producing some very unique items.

You sure are welcome Bob, I have never seen that pistol before and would like to add one to my collection but probably couldn't afford it. Lon
