Steyr M1912

The Steyr M1912, also known as the Steyr-Hahn, is a semi-automatic pistol that was developed in 1911 by the Austrian firm Steyr Mannlicher. The design was based on the rotating barrel locking mechanism of the Roth–Steyr M1907 but replaced the external striker with a spur hammer ("Hahn") and simplified disassembly to allow for field stripping under adverse conditions. It was developed for the Austro-Hungarian Army and adopted in 1912 as one of the three standard Austro-Hungarian military handguns of World War I, alongside the Roth-Steyr and FEG Frommer STOP. The M1912 was able to endure the adverse conditions of trench warfare during World War I and could still be found in service during World War II. Despite its near perpendicular grip angle, the Steyr M1912 is usually regarded as one of the best service pistols of World War I after the Colt M1911.
