List of products by brand Rast & Gasser

Rast & Gasser, founded in Austria, is renowned for its 1898 model revolver. Designed by Leopold Gasser and August Rast, this revolver was adopted by the Austro-Hungarian Army as a service weapon during World War I and continued to see use in various armies through World War II. The Rast & Gasser M1898 is a double-action revolver known for its durability and reliability. It featured an eight-round cylinder and used 8mm Gasser ammunition. The revolver had a solid-frame design with a side-loading gate, an innovative feature at the time. Although intended to be replaced by semi-automatic pistols like the Roth-Steyr M1907 and Steyr M1912, the Rast & Gasser M1898 remained in service due to insufficient production of the newer weapons
