Mannlicher Model 1903
The Mannlicher Model 1903 is Austrian in origin. It was a very high quality handgun with an excellent finish and high grade steel used in its construction. It was designed to compete with the Mauser C96 "Broomhandle" pistol. It fired the 7.65mm Mannlicher round. The round was similar in size to the 7.63mm Mauser round, but not as powerful. Though a neat looking handgun the design was found to be fragile and unable to withstand the high-pressure round that it was chambered for. The general finding was the the weapon was "overstressed". A few were made with extra-long barrels and stock attachments for hunting and possible cavalry use. The model was tested by numerous armies during the first part of the Twentieth Century, but none adopted it.It sometimes appears in movies and television productions set in the early Twentieth Century.
