A Couple of Fine Old Pistols

Went to my LGS this afternoon to pay on my Ruger 1022 BackPacker.  While there, I perused the pistols and saw a couple of great old pistols.  First up was a Savage 1907 .32ACP.  with an extra mag.  It showed some blueing wear, but was in great mechanical condition.  The second pistol, was a GEM of  little pistol!  It was a J.P. Sauer and Sohn Sulh 1913 .32ACP.  Both were purchased from an estate sale.  The Sauer blueing was in great condition.  Honestly, I believe it was shot very, very little.  It looked like an almost new pistol. to be so old!  

If anyone in the Knoxville area is interested in checking out these fine old pistols out, they are at Crossroads Firearms on Broadway, in Fountain City.

I'd post representative photos of these two pistols, but I find posting pictures here an exercise is frustration, so you all can DDG them and check them out.

I have always loved the Savage 1907's.  They are cool little pistols.

Me too! This was the first time I got to handle one! It was very comfortable in the hand! And I didn’t realize they were a hammer fired striker. You could cock this one and the striker was attached to the hammer.  Just really interesting!

But that Sauer 1913! It’s a great looking pistol! Every bit as nice as this one!

That Sauer is really cool. I had not seen of those before. 

I’ve seen photos, but never one in real life, until now. This one was a beaut!

I had a Savage 1907 for a while. Its a really super cool pistol. However, mine had such a horrible trigger that I couldn't hit squat with it.  🙄

OTOH, If you weren't so far away, I'd be all over that Sauer 1913. 😉

Nuttin wrong with the trigger in my 1907 or 1917. I’m still looking for the elusive 1915 hammerless.

Go back and get them.

I’m tempted to go back and get the Sauer... but I need to get the Backpacker layaway out first.
