Ganzstahl Sportpistole Wolf Ultramatic Mod. LV
Encyclopedia
The Ultramatic LV is a semi-automatic pistol made by Gabriel Vojta Sportwaffen Gmbh, later by Wolf Sportwaffen Gmbh of Austria. Its layout is based around the CZ 75 pistol with a fixed slide and is chambered in the 9x19mm Parabellum round. The Design is made by Dietmar Vallentinitsch. The Ultramatic pistol that at first glance looks a bit like a 1911, but really isn't anything like it at all. The Ultramatic LV pistol has a fixed barrel and "fixed slide". What moves is an internal bolt, retarded after firing by two locking studs, in a fashion similar to that of the MG-42, the German machine-gun of WWII. Ultramatic calls this a "torus segment locking system".
This is a big pistol, about 10 inches long and 6 inches high with a 6 inch barrel. It has conventional double action and a staggered-column magazine. A manual safety combined with a decocker conforms to IPSC rules.
The pistol is offered as a 9mm now, but others in 40, 45. Pistols have reportedly been in production since late 1995. The company closed in 1998, because the production was to expensive for the price they could earn for a pistol. Curiously, it appears that elements of this pistol design resurfaced as the prototype for the Hogue Avenger. It is apparently some sort of 1911 top end:
