👉 The Meyer weapon, also known as the Meyer pistol or the Meyer revolver, is a compact, single-action revolver designed by German gunsmith Wilhelm Meyer in the late 19th century. It features a unique, ergonomically shaped cylinder with a distinctive, curved barrel that allows for rapid and precise shots. The weapon typically uses.45 ACP or.38 WCF cartridges, with a 9mm bullet for increased stopping power. Its compact size and ease of handling made it popular among law enforcement and civilians alike, particularly in Germany and Austria-Hungary. The Meyer weapon's design emphasizes reliability and ease of use, making it a notable example of innovative firearm engineering during its era.
