I've never used a gun, let alone this one, but couldn't you use the safety to prevent the slide from closing during reloading? Pictures on the web seem to indicate that this is indeed possible. Shinobu 22:45, 9 December 2005 (UTC)

Contents 1 Japanese version 2 Units 3 Serial number 4 .22LR 5 Romanian contract.

[edit] Japanese version

Note: The Japanese version of this article seems to contain information this version doesn't. Shinobu 08:36, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

I sort of compared the two and concluded that most difference lay in the infobox and the list of famous occurrences in media, the latter of which I have brought here. Shinobu 10:31, 25 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Units

This article contains a few "strange unit (SI unit)" pairs. But the M1934 was designed in Europe, and presumably using metric units, so shouldn't these unit pairs be reversed to "SI unit (strange unit)"? Shinobu 02:31, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Serial number

Is there any possiblility that you can trace where was a gun used by knowing it's serial number? I have one M1934, made in 1937, used by Italian army, but I would like to find out to which unit was this specific piece issued...if anyone knows, I would very much appreciate the info.Velimir85 16:52, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] .22LR

I believe there also is a .22LR model.

[edit] Romanian contract.

We might want to add something about the Romanian contract. http://www.gunboards.com/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=156646
