At the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century, sciences developed quite rapidly and technologies improved. He did not leave aside technological progress and small arms.
The appearance of smokeless powders made it possible to reduce the dimensions of ammunition without reducing their power, to make the weapon more compact. Attempts to find demand in the small arms market led to the creation of interesting and progressive systems at that time.
The weapon became more practical, convenient and easy to handle. However, sometimes in pursuit of the fashion for compact weapons, really curious shooting devices were created. One such controversial weapon is the Kolibri Pistol.
The Kolibri Pistol was developed in 1910 by a 2.7 mm Kolibri cartridge, which is sometimes found in the literature under the designation: 2.7 mm Kolibri Auto Pistol; 2.7 × 9 mm Hummingbirds; 2 mm Hummingbirds; 2.7 Kolibri Selbstlade pistol; 2.7 mm Colibri; 2.7 × 9 Hummingbird Auto 1913; XCR 03 009 CGC010; SAA 0015.
