Lignose 3 Complete Specs and Full Gun Specifications

The Model 3 was a Taschenpistole (pocket pistol) with a barrel and slide identical to the Model 2 but with a longer grip, holding nine rounds in the magazine. The later Lignose (at least after SN 22148) is marked on the left side of the slide in all capital sans-serif characters: AKT.-GES. LIGNOSE, BERLIN/ABTEILUNG SUHL - CAL.6,35 D.R.P. Field Stripping the Model 3: With the safety off, remove the magazine and retract the slide to clear the gun and cock the hammer. Pull the slide back and rotate the safety upward to engage the notch in the slide which holds it back. Turn the barrel 180° (counter-clockwise as you face the front of the gun). Release the safety and ease the slide and barrel forward until the rear of the slide is just above the safety lever, then lift slide and barrel straight up off the gun.
