Complete with shoulder stock and forearm, it was manufactured by DWM (Deutsche Waffen-und Munitionsfabriken A.-G.) ìn very limited quantity, several thousand only, thus making it now a rare collector item. Recognizing this, the U.S. Treasury Department's ATFB recently reclassified it to exempt it from National Firearms Act restrictions. (See p. 58, this issue, and p. 26, Nov.) The Model 1902 with carbine shoulder stock reportedly was favored by Kaiser Wilhelm II of Germany for deer hunting because he had, from birth, a crippled arm. The pistol without stock weighed 44 ozs. It fired a cal. .30 necked Luger cartridge whose carbine version was blacked for identification because its powder charge was heavier than normal.
