Recently picked up one of these, since they are not very often documented I thought I would share a few pictures of this one. It is a SIG Brevet manufactured Bergmann m/20 machine pistol. The particular one is of early production, since the three digit serial starts with 1 (I digitally removed the last two digits of the serial in the attached pictures). It is - aside of the magazine - all matching numbers, including the stock. Notice the rear sight. When you look at it, doesn't it immediately remind you of the Swiss bolt action rifle rear sights? At least it did for me!
For what I know this one was made for Finland. It features a 50-round box magazine, what by the way is an amazing capacity for any machine pistol, even nowadays (for the moment can only remember the FN P90 that has an identical capacity).
