Default WWI Imperial marked pistols (German army)

Part of my Imperial marked collection of German pistols (All 32 cliber pistols made and marked for the army) They would say the higher the rank the smaller the pistol. First two: Langenhan and Frommer, next: Beholla, Dreyse, Walther4, Walter 4(different contractors) and Bayard (the smallest), and Beholla. last pistol Mauser1914 the largest in the group.The hosters date from 1914 to 1918 for the Walther 4s, Beholla, Mauser14, Bayard, langenhan.
Thanks for looking
Joe

Now that right there is a cool collection! You seldom see anyone paying attention to any of the German martial arms from WWI, unless it's a Luger, maybe a C96.

Excellent collection. Do you also collect the Great War pistols of Austria-Hungary?

This is a great collection of WWI weapons, although many of the same models were carried in WWII.

Nice collection English.

I only own this one Imperial marked Mauser 1914 pistol at this time.
Now, Axis pistols I do a little better at.
