In the mid-1940s, W+F Bern ran a very small batch of target pistols with barrels of 17 and 20 cm length respectively, with fixed or adjustable target sights, apparently exclusively for the national shooting team. With a gun such as the one presented here, Heinrich Keller won the World Championship in Buenos Aires in 1949. Upon the return of the team, the pistols were reclaimed by W+F Bern and only sold off at a later stage.WBK: Attention - For this gun we will need to obtain an export license for you, based on your import permit (if needed in your country) or through your firearms dealer - more info here
