Previous poster got it correct. One of the numerous products of the August Menz factory, from Suhl Germany.
It dates to after the First World War and it's based on a larger pistol that Mentz made for the German military during that war. He scaled it down from 32 caliber to 25 caliber.
He also produced quite a number of other pistols over the years, under different names. If you could post some photos, perhaps we could confirm it's the correct pistol.0 -

Your picture isn't showing, all we can see is a red X.
You these directions to post your picture.
First thing you need is a site to host your picture. What I mean by that is that you will need to upload your pictures to a web site that will host(display) them for you. You should not use your hard drive to host pictures for safety sake. Use www.photobucket.com to host your pictures.
After you have uploaded your pictures to the site that will host them for you(per their directions), the next thing you will want to do is go to the picture hosting site and view the picture. While you are viewing the picture, right click on it and you'll see another window that should pop up, now click on "properties" and copy the picture URL. If you know how to "copy & paste" this will be a piece of cake.
Now that you have the picture URL and your ready to post your picture. Do the following, use the following code except take out the "*" asterisk. The "*" asterisk is used here only so you can see the code. In other words if I posted the code without the "*" asterisk you will see a picture instead of the code. Anyways use this code to post your picture..

It's the scaled down version of the W W I pistol that Mentz made for the German Military. According to my book it dates to the 1920's. Definitely not the "Vest Pocket" .25, that he also manufactured. Kind of big for a 25 Auto. 0
