Still leaning toward an early auto pistol to befuddle the BG's.
Even Tom Horn, a very nowledgable gunman, was unable to figure out how to use one as late as 1903.
"Facing a hanging, Horn escaped from jail briefly with another prisoner by beating Deputy Richard Proctor. Other residents joined in and knocked Horn to the ground as he struggled to fire the pistol he had seized along the way, allegedly a German Luger, which he was completely unfamiliar with."
Perhaps a Borchardt?
