I recently got this old spanish style pocket pistol. It has no markings on it indicating the manufacturer or its age aside from these stamps on the frame, slide, and barrel. Any of you anons know what these markings indicate?

It's actually in .25 acp. Here's a full picture. I figure that if I can figure out the proofings on the gun, I can determine the maker and age.

Other side? Any markings on barrel near ejection port?

I thought I saw a German or Czech pistol with serrations exactly like that. It's driving me nuts, might not be Spanish.

looks spanish, I have a 32acp ruby that looks very similar, including the shit steel patina

Hawes? Definitely not OP's but it has the same style serrations

A Spanish Eibar/Ruby pistol, whatever the .25 ACP pocket version was.

They share the distinctive slide cuts and general quality/proof marks.

Nah, never heard of Hawes. For some reason it reminds me of some CZ/VZ.

I'm probably wrong.

Here is the other side. Zero markings for maker

little .25 Eibar Ruby pistol, likely from before the civil war, probably from a little shop, hence why they didnt bother with marks

I love old guns
