The Stamm-Saurer Model 1916 is a rare experimental Swiss light machine gun designed by Hans Stamm. This air-cooled prototype, one of two built, retains features from water-cooled designs for manufacturing ease. It utilizes a short-recoil action, fires the 7.5x55mm GP11 cartridge from a 20-round magazine, and incorporates a unique out-of-battery safety mechanism.
The Stamm-Saurer Model 1913 is a rare long-recoil prototype semi-automatic rifle developed by Hans Stamm for Saurer. Its complex dual-spring system and long-recoil action offered safety but proved too complex for mass production. Only 15 prototypes were made before WWI halted development and Saurer's firearms division closed.
The Stamm-Saurer Model 1907 was a rare Swiss straight-pull bolt-action rifle developed by Hans Stamm for Saurer to compete for military contracts. Despite its high quality and innovative features like a unique rear sight and integrated cleaning rod, it was rejected by the Swiss military. The rifle competed against the Schmidt-Rubin K11 and G11, ultimately losing due to existing institutional knowledge of the Schmidt-Rubin and Saurer's refusal to license production.
