Hämmerli 212
« on: April 19, 2021, 12:18:38 PM »
 LGS had this cute little Hämmerli 212. It is called Jägerschaftspistole, and is used for a special discipline of the DJV, the German hunter's organisation. It is a timed event, 3 seconds at 25 m, drawing and shooting at the old silhouette duel target (thanks to Andyd for that info).

It is derived from the International / 208 / 215 series but simplified. It has low profile sights, adjustable for windage only.

As with many Swiss firearms it oozes quality and workmanship

My 215 for comparison


























I took it straight to the range, and as expected it worked flawlessly

Have a 206 American.  Used it when I was shooting Bullseye.  Great pistol, incredibly accurate with almost any ammo.  Just could not use HV as the steel is too soft. 

Nice pistols.
