Identify My Pistol PLEASE :( :(
Well I took my 2 new Pistols out and one of them broke
Here she is
Only markings are the serial # (D 2061) D could be a weird N ??
Left of slide reads Automatic Pistol Cal 6.35 (not . but the 35 is smaller and underlined
both grips read Cal 6.35 (underlined again)
Mose every part has the # 18 stamped on it.
Also the barrel is not pinned to the frame. to remove the slide you give the barrel a 3/4 turn clockwise and pull it out from the front. then the slide and recoil rod can be removed. the barrel seems to sit in a couple of grooves in the frame
I was in the middle of magazine 2 when the slide locked halfway back and the firing pin and spring rolled into my lap. Also the ejector pin looked homemade so I turned the slide over and accidentally dropped it. the pin dropped right out and went missing, so I finished disassembling it and the small thumb tack type thing that the magazine retainer sits on shot out of the spring and was lost too.
Please help me identify my model. I now need a new firing pin and spring, ejector pin, magazine retaining spring doohicky and possibly whatever else broke to allow the firing pin to fall out rearward
Thanks much in advance

It's a inexpensive Spanish knock-off of the Browning .25 Auto. My reference attributes it to a manufacturer named Santiago Salaberrin. Although their were so many makers in the Basque areas of Spain prior to the Spanish Civil War, who made similar handguns it could have been by any of them.
Since it doesn't have any proof marks, it's at least 75 years old. Chances of getting replacement parts that would work without a lot of hand fitting are slim.0 -
Rufe-Snow has made the correct call! Your little pistol is what We generally call a RUBY Type Pistol...There were many makers building these little guns and they were generally called the 'RUBY'.....Parts are going to be next to impossible to locate and if you find something that is close, it will have to be hand fitted..and Re-Hardened....If you're going to play with Ruby {"Eibar"} Type Pistols you really ought to purchase a Copy of Gene Gangarosa's Book on Spanish Handguns...It will teach You more than We can....and my sugestion is not to shoot any of these little guns...They're just not up to the Modern pressures of todays cartridges.....I wish you luck in chasing down replacement parts....

I had the exact same pistol years ago that I inherited from my aunt. The pistol had been passed down to her from her brother.
I sold it 6 years ago for about $30.00.
It was a good pocket pistol, and was reliable for feeding and ejecting, but was so inaccurate it would barely place a bullet on an 8-inch pie plate 10 feet away.
