Just in: a Stoeger Tell 2

[ccdjg]

Wonder if the Webley Stoeger models encouraged the Germans to compete by adding the Stoeger name. Given the time frame for Stoeger’s francise for Webley, it may be just the later Tell 2s had the name? Webley also could have reduced Tell sales by then, this catalog was going to people with money to afford a better pistol. The Blue Book has the Tell 2 from 1925 to 1940. Hiller 1927-1936. Wonder if Hiller is right given Stoeger Catalogs?

The latest catalogue entry for the Tell 2 that I have seen is in a German Kaba catalogue, dated 1940.
