Janz is a line of premium (costing up to 25,000 Euros), low volume (less than one hundred per year)revolvers manufactured by Janz-Präzisionstechnik GmbH, ofBad Malente,Holstein,Germany.[1]
Janz-Präzisionstechnik GmbH originally produced a number of parts for the companyKorth-Ratzeburg. In the 1990s Korth was bankrupt and production ceased, prompting Janz to start manufacturing revolvers under their own brand in 1997, utilizing frames and parts produced for Korth.[2][3]
Janz also produces a 9 mm semiautomatic as theJanz-Schuknecht Pistole.[8][1]
