J.P. Sauer & Sohn of Suhl is the oldest firearm manufacturer in Germany, having been founded in 1751. The firm has produced all manner of firearms, including self-loading pistols starting around 1905, beginning with the 7.65 mm Browning-chambered (.32 ACP) Roth-Sauer repeater. This handgun, however, did not bear the Sauer imprimatur, and though the guns were marked with Sauer & Sohn’s name, they were not a Sauer design. That distinction would have to wait almost 10 years when the company came out with the first semi-automatic pistol devised and produced solely by Sauer & Sohn—the Selbstlade-Pistole Modell 1913.

About the time of the 1911’s 100th birthday, we were solidly in the age of the polymer pistol. A decade later, subcompact polymer-pistols chambered in 9 mm have become the most popular handguns for self-defense. Given that landscape, it might seem odd a company would invest in the production of a new line of 1911 handguns. The truth is, there’s still a demand for the old warhorse, especially compact and lightweight variants in the original .45 ACP chambering. |

What were described as the "nation's toughest restrictions" on self-manufactured firearms were signed into law on Thursday by New York Gov. Kathy Hochul. Hochul, who inherited her post earlier this year after former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo resigned under a cloud of accusations, signed the "Jose Webster Untraceable Firearms Act" and the "Scott J. Beigel Unfinished Receiver Act" before an invited crowd of masked anti-gun advocates and Democrat lawmakers. |

It’s always fun to talk about bad gun ideas, but what about the good ones that were before their time? Throughout the history of firearm invention, some designs that were actually superior for their era didn’t get adopted at the time. That could have been because they were too advanced for military tactics of the day, too expensive, to slow on delivery, or just good old-fashioned politics got in the way.
