The Steyr M1912, also known as the Steyr-Hahn, is an Austro-Hungarian semi-automatic pistol developed by Österreichische Waffenfabriks-Gesellschaft (Œ.W.G.) and adopted by the Austro-Hungarian Army in 1912. The pistol was developed in the years preceding its adoption and became one of the principal Austro-Hungarian military pistols of World War I.
