Description
English: Standart M-98 pistol was designed for use as a true handgun; no more as a surrogate autoloader carbine. Frontmost lever on the left side is a safety. Positions of it are "SAFE" downwards and "FIRE" upwards. Rearmost lever is a hold-open catch ("setting lever") of a breech-block, which keep the bolt in it's rear position during removal of an empty magazine and insertion of a filled clip. Pistol is cocked on the picture. Note a prominently extruding rear end of a striker; easy to see and feel. Thumb of a shooter is pushing the safety lever to "FIRE" position, and the forefinger is away from the trigger. (Source: Engraved illustration from the Schwarzlose manual, published in 1901).
