The Brun Latrige Pistol,

Patented in 1868 but not manufactured until 1890, the Brun Latrige was a French pistol with a very odd design.  Firing was done by pulling back on the trigger/trigger guard.  Pulling back on the trigger would eject an empty casing, load a new casing, and fire the cartridge.  That is why as you can see the pistol has such a long trigger pull.  The gun was fed from an internal magazine which held 10 small 6mm rounds.  An odd looking pistol, they were underpowered and few were produced.
