Steampunk Automatic

Description

A big, clunky automatic pistol (just how I like them). More obvious Mauser influence, as well as that from some early Colt automatics (Pre-1911). Further exploration of birdshead grips on an automatic pistol, I like the look. Also not the breach is behind the magazine (Can't remember exactly how that concept works, but I know it's been prototyped at least once).

Nice pistol, reminds me a bit of the "Bergman 1911" that one of John Wayne's sons was using in the movie Big Jake. However, I do think that the method of operation you have chosen for that gun isn't a great choice for a low tech firearm; it would almost certainly have reliability problems. But I love the way it looks, certainly would work well for Steampunk or any late 1800s RPG
