Very early production with folding trigger was produced without extractor. These early small frame pistols were chambered for the 5mm Bergman cartridge and were fed by a stripper clip. A total production of less than 2000 guns were ever made. Serial number 156 is found on most internal parts as well as grips. Pistol is finished in a deep rust blue finish with straw finished appointments and checkered wood grips. Included is the ultra-rare stripper clip that most collectors have never seen with the exception of pictures in books. This pistol is accompanied by a period leather holster. CONDITION: Very fine with most all rust blue finish remaining. The bore is very good and the action operates properly. The grips are excellent with no chips or breaks. The stripper clip is very fine with most of its period nickel finish remaining. The leather holster is poor and missing the snap and out flap. This is possible to have restored. A rare opportunity to own the first pattern No. 2 Bergman with stripper and holster. TDW
