FROM WIKIPEDIA

The Mannlicher M1901 was an early semi-automatic pistol designed by Austrian engineer Ferdinand Mannlicher. It was developed in Austria-Hungary in the early 20th century and manufactured by Österreichische Waffenfabriks-Gesellschaft (Œ.W.G.) in Steyr. The M1901 was one of Mannlicher's early self-loading pistol designs and was produced in limited numbers.
