Savage model 1907, This ones from 1910, .32acp using a nifty 10rd magazine .
very cool' design that "utilizes" the "Torque" of the bullet to unlock the barrel OR so they said.


All the mechanics are within the bolt/striker assembly using a simple transfer bar from the trigger.

This design ran in the US Army trials up against the 1911 , issue was all they did was upscale everything to a .45acp . The bolt design doesn't lend itself too much to filthy combat conditions + chance to lose small parts on field stripping in the field.

Savage didn't lose out as places like Portugal cashed in on the design . They made it in .380 as well.


Pretty cool find as it's my first WWI era .32 auto. Remember, wasn't about stopping/knockdown power at the time. It was all about status.
