The “VICTORIA MOD. 1911 ”, corresponds to the brand with which Pedro Unceta and Juan Esperanza designate the first semi-automatic pistols produced by the company born from their association, in Eibar, in 1908.
As a consequence of their relationship with the manufacturers Esperanza and Unceta, their models began to be produced by them under the "Victoria" brand from 1911.
The Victoria pistol is probably the first weapon made with the characteristics of the Eibar-type pistol. Esperanza y Unceta manufactured Victoria pistols in the 6.35mm and 7.65mm calibers.
Esperanza y Unceta abandoned the use of the "Victoria" trademark in 1915 due to a conflict over the possession of the patent, being replaced by "Astra", which was the most widely used from then on.
pioneer of an extensive series of pistols known as "Eibarresas".
