POTD: What Did Frommer Do? – The Femaru Model 37

Welcome to today’s Photo of the Day! Here we have a pistol that shares a legacy with the man himself, Rodulph Frommer. Frommer is much more well known for his long recoil 32 ACVP Frommer Stop pistol but his involvement with the FEG company really brought them into brighter times. This is a FEG Femaru Model 37 and it shares some light features of previous Frommer designs but unfortunately, there is no proof to support Rodulh Frommer had any hand in its creation. These were made in various cartridges such as 380 ACP but most notably were chambered for 32 ACP for a German Luftwaffe contract.

“Slide dated “43” with “eagle/WaA173″ acceptance mark on left side of trigger guard. With leather holster and extra magazine.”
