The Bauer Automatic delivers a true stainless interpretation of the FN Baby Browning, produced in the United States from 1972 to 1984. Built in Fraser, Michigan, it uses investment-cast 416 stainless for the barrel, slide, frame, and receiver, with hand-fitted parts and a uniform matte stainless finish.
This micro-size pistol measures approximately 4.04 inches in overall length, 2.78 inches in height, and 1.00 inch in width, and weighs about 10 ounces empty. Capacity is 6+1 rounds of .25 ACP. The 2.10-inch barrel, fixed integral sights machined into the slide, and an anti-glare rib support precise alignment on a very compact platform.
Operation is simple and proven: a semi-automatic, blowback-operated action with a smooth trigger and a manual safety. The safety lever also positions the slide for takedown, and the barrel rotates opposite the FN design during disassembly. Many parts interchange with the FN Baby Browning, underscoring its faithful layout.
Details include rear vertical slide serrations, checkered wood grip panels, and clear slide legends: "Bauer Firearms Corp. FRASER, MICHIGAN U.S.A." and "Bauer Automatic .25 CALIBER AUTOMATIC." No European proof or date marks are present, aligning with its American manufacture in the 1970s–1980s era.
