The Ortgies .25 ACP (6.35mm) is a German semi-automatic, striker-action pistol that was manufactured between the years of 1919 to 1923. This compact firearm was designed by Heinrich Ortgies, a German entrepreneur, and had a relatively short production span post World War II due to financial difficulties. The Ortgies, which comes with a blued finish, has a 7+1 capacity, indicating it can hold 7 rounds inside the magazine and one in the chamber. Despite its short-lived production, the Ortgies pistol gained a reputation for their quality and sleek design, popular among collectors and firearms enthusiasts alike.
