Zehna

I have a "Zehna" Cal 5.35 pocket pistol I got from My Grandfather. I can't figure out how to disassemble it to clean it... so... I don't want to shoot it. Can anybody help me with disassembling this thing?

    The Zehna is a little known German made, ( circa 1920's ) pistol. It has a complicated disassembly, based on a protrusion on the bottom of the barrel with hole in it. The recoil spring guide runs through the hole, to secure the barrel to the frame. Since it's so uncommon and hard to get parts for, I wouldn't screw with it by attempting to take it apart. Clean it up as best you can, without disassembly.

    Thanks for the info, but I'm determined to get it cleaned up for storage. If you have the procedure for dissassembly, please post.

    Thanks,
    Rick

    oopps... almost failed to note... the picture you provided doesn't look anything like my gun.. it is smaller than my LCP. I don't know how to send a picture in this forum.
