Witold Chylewski was very clever polish man!!! He was born in Lwów, there he made his patent, but there was no polish factory interested in producing this pistol. First pistol with this patent was SIG - Chylewski, then Lignose bought the patent.
By that time Bergman was a Lignose 'brand', much like Dreyse was a RM&M/Rheinmetall brand. At least 50,000 Lignose pocket pistols were produced between probably 1918 and 1928.
There is a lot of Germans with surnames of Polish, Silesian, Pomeranian and Czech origins. So if someone has -ski or -ov name it doesn't 100% mean he is a slav. But Witold Chylewski was a Pole from Austria that's right.
Why in the world would you video tape black guns on a black background? And then, to add insult to injury, pick it up and point to it while wearing a pair of black gloves and a black dress!
...don't know what acp stands for?! Not familiar with the work of the greatest firearms designer of all time? .25, .32, .380, .38, .45 you know all but one of these are still alive and well. That should have been edited out. Come on NRA museum this video all together was terrible, but i still love ya.
PLEASE - Don't display dark colored firearms against a black background. Bring back Phil Schreier. This guy is embarrassingly unknowledgeable about the firearms he presents.
Richard Hoepfner Agreed. These have become uniformly awkward and frustrating. You’d think the NRA would have some of the best gun content on RU-vid. Far from it.
