Bergmann-Bayard
After Spain ordered 3,000 Bergmann M1903 Mars pistols in 1905, Bergmann faced a production issue; their subcontractor, V.C. Schilling, Suhl, was purchased by Krieghoff in 1904, who ended the factory's relationship with Bergmann, and Bergmann didn't want to immediately invest in new tooling for the modest contract of 3,000 pistols (they ended up only making a portion of the M1903 contract with their limited production facilities). They spent two years looking for a new subcontractor before finding the Belgian company Anciens Etablissements Pieper (AEP) to serve as their new subcontractor in 1907.
However, before AEP's production began, the Spanish government made requests for some tweaks to the M1903's design. Bergmann and AEP adjusted the design based on the requests, and the new model was designated Bergmann 1908, which constituted the vast majority of the pistols delivered to Spain. In 1910, the Danish government also adopted the Bergmann pistol, who also had their own list of tweaks. This second adjusted model was designated the Bergmann 1910. In 1921, Denmark, still using the Bergmann 1910, began to produce the pistol domestically, as they needed more pistols and replacement parts and AEP did not offer them. These pistols were further refined and are known under the designation Bergmann 1910/21. These would be the last produced version of the Bergmann automatic pistol.
As a part of Bergmann and AEP's agreement, AEP was licensed to produce the gun commercially, and they did so under the trade name Bayard. As a result, the 1908, 1910, and 1910/21 models are commonly known under the name "Bergmann-Bayard".
