Possibly also known as a Flobert, after the creator. These date from the 1800s, and use a rimfire cartridge with NO powder- the primer alone is the propellant. The action is not suited for use with regular ammunition. They were used as toys, indoor target shooting and for pest control much like a pellet gun. They were also used by the military as a short range training weapon.
