A 1908 Imperial marked Bayard pistol

[english]

This is probably the smallest of the Imperial marked pistols(Imperial mark on front of the barrel, eagle) used by the German army during WWI (or for that matter WWII). The 1917 marked holster is for a Walther #4 but this is how it came.
Thanks for looking,
Joe

I've been watching your posts of pocket pistols and have a question. Do you shoot the pistols in your collection? I know if they were mine I could not resist shooting such a wide selection of very cool old auto pistols.. Please continue with your very interesting post.

Muddyboot, I would like to shoot some of my collection and may do so some time in the future.There are certain pistols I wouldn't shoot because I'm afraid of breaking parts that I can't replace like 1911, 1911AI, 1914 Luger (all parts are correct). First, I have to find a club to join.
As always, your comments are appreciated.
Joe
