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, of Bad Malente, Holstein, Germany. [1]
Janz-Präzisionstechnik GmbH originally produced a number of parts for the company Korth-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 the Janz-Schuknecht Pistole. [8] [1]
