Article Abstract:

The Colt's Company is making automatic pistols for many years and the Savage Company had lately begun the manufacture of automatics and their activities are entirely devoted to one caliber .32 exclusively. The Savage pistol fulfills the requirements originally imposed as vitally essential for military hand arm, but Board of Officers was convinced that Colt's was superior because of its reliability, more enduring, more easily dissembled when broken parts were to be replaced.
