Among other things to mention the famous missing Nickl prototypes.
I can show photos of 2 pistols with the same appearance and different mechanisms.
But even these pistols are not pocket, but an evolution towards COLT size 1911 and 9 mm Prabellum (9x19)
You can see my blog for photos. greetings juangomez

Very interesting pistols. It would seem that these were experimental pistols by Nickl made well after the Model 1909 9mm Parabellum guns mentioned in the article. They have evidently borrowed the slide retraction "bumps" from the 1910 pocket model. Many thanks for the link! The relationship between Mauser and Brno continued into the World War II years. I have a 98K rifle coded "dot", made in 1944 at Brno when Czechoslovakia was under German occupation. Interestingly, the stamped trigger guard/magazine assembly was made by Mauser in Oberndorf (stamped "byf"), and this was correct for this particular variation. The two firms traded technology and parts.
