You all talk about the p64, p83, Wist, MAG95, MAG98, Radom Vis, TT, but you all seem to forget about one more Polish handgun.. The Gward revolver in.38 special

Looks like they only made 525 of them.

It seemed ill advised to embark on a revolver design in the age of autos IMO.

Not so. Once in a while it will come up in discussion. General spoken as good guns but ugly as all anything. They aren't as available as the ones you've listed so not as much discussion.

Well actually more have been made. Some sources say that it was around 1800-2000. Actually a shop in Warsaw (a gunsmithing company actually) had pretty large numbers of it last summer, bought from the manufacturer Wifama which I guess still had some leftovers for some reason

Hmmmmm....looks like the lovechild of a Nagant M1895 and an S&W model 10.
