This is the last revolver called Gasser. Gasser supplied this revolver to the army from 1898 until the end of WWI, although after 1912 it was pushed out by automatic pistols. It was also the last revolver introduced into the RU army. Structurally, it was a double action revolver (ie with trigger tension), the interesting thing is that the cock does not have a striker, but strikes the striker which is stored in the frame. The cylinder with eight chambers is fixed in the frame and charging is solved by an Abadie type flap on the right side of the weapon. When it is opened, the striker is blocked at the same time, so there can be no shot while charging. The weapon is known for its well-thought-out construction and excellent workmanship. After WWI, it was still used in both Central Europe and the Balkans, and Italy used these revolvers (from war replacements) at the beginning of WWII.

Unfortunately, due to technical problems, I could not insert photos with the creation, so I am correcting it

In the armament of our pre-war army, this revolver also appeared, still in March 1939 it is in the state of 3748 pieces.

Just a few small additions: the mechanism is hidden under the left lock plate, which can be removed after the bow is tilted (similar to W PP). The mechanism is "chased" by one forged "V" spring. The almost perpendicular inclination of the grip is due to the old way of holding the gun with the elbow bent. With 8 rounds in the cylinder, it is (as far as I know) the only Army revolver in the world, the Nagant still had 7 rounds.

Aby byl vidět Fantanem zmíněný mechanizmus přidám fotku "otevřeného" revolveru, tedy zbraně s odklopenou deskou na levém boku

Let me make three small clarifications. The spring-loaded firing pin is called floating, the hammer is with "rebound" i.e. after releasing the trigger it moves away from the firing pin by a few millimeters and the Abadia flap does not block the firing pin, but when the flap is open it is possible to press the trigger only to rotate the cylinder without moving the hammer, i.e. when reloading you cannot fire. Other than removing the firing pins, you only need your hands for a complete analysis. An admirable design for its time.
