JP Sauer und Sohn

The Sauer 38H is a German semi-automatic pistol manufactured by JP Sauer and Sohn. It was one of the first mass-produced pistols with a fully concealed hammer and a double-action trigger. The 38H designation stands for Modell 38 Hahnlos, meaning hammerless. It uses a blowback action and was primarily chambered in .32 ACP. The pistol features a distinctive slide with serrations at the front and rear for manipulation. It was widely issued to Luftwaffe and police units during World War II.
