So, I came into possession of a pretty old Röhm RG 800. I got it from a friend in Germany. He claimed it was his father's whilst he was in the German Army. It's been schlagged and the metal's not in very good shape. I am having a lot of difficulty finding any info on his gun online (that's not in Russian, that is). It looks like the current Röhm RG 90 is a very similar model, but I'm not sure. Does anyone have any info on this particular gun? I am trying to do a research paper for a German history seminar. Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi,

welcome on board

Could you post all the markings on the slide, especially the one after Röhm RG 800 which should be the caliber.
Pics would be welcome as well

But if it is what I think it is I don't know any Armed Force issuing such a gun to his soldiers, unless for some kind of special functions in a place where live firing who be highly dangerous

Cheers
