Reck P6/P8
A pair of nearly identical pocket pistols, Reck P6 gas-firing pistol and Reck P8 .25 caliber pistol, were produced by Karl Arndt Reck Sportwaffenfabrik from the mid-50s to the late 60s. While P6 was intended mostly for West Germany and other European states where gun laws allowed only less-lethal weapons, P8 was extensively exported to the USA, where it was sold under names LA Fury and Chicago Cub. This typical "Saturday Night Special" gun has steel frame and Zamac zinc alloy slide. Several German companies produced Reck P8 under license. Among these versions are Gecado Model 11 produced by G.C. Dornheim and imported to USA by Hawes Firearms Company, and Valor SM-11 produced by Indian Arms. These pistols, being internally the same, have differently placed safety and another shape of the slide serration. Less-lethal guns of the family also include starter pistols P6S and P10, and improved version of the gas pistol P800.
Internally all these guns are based on Walther Model 9 pistol.
