  "Lancia-razzi" is the Italian name for signal/starter pistols.
  
  Generally they were very small, about the size of a vestpocket .25. But they didn't fire conventional ball ammo. The stuff they used was 6mm rimfire blanks, flares and tear gas rounds. I've only seen the blanks.
  
  Many of them were made by the firm of Molgora, using the trade name Mondial.
  
  The 1900 was one of the models.
