The Model GZ (Modèle GZ), according to Josserand and Huon, was originally made in France, beginning on 1 January 1957, but the license was sold to Echasa (Echave y Arizmendi) in Eibar, Spain in 1962. I have a photograph of a French-made GZ, otherwise I might doubt it was ever made in France. The Model GZ is nearly identical to the Model G with the external hammer, but has distinctly different slide serrations. Some GZs have five broad, angled, square-cut slide serrations, while others have eight narrow angled square-cut serrations. Huon states that the GZ has an alloy frame. The Spanish GZ has an alloy frame, and was available in .22, .25, .32, and .380. The Spanish-made guns are clearly marked ECHASA. EIBAR (ESPAÑA) and MABESPAÑOLA on the left side of the slide, and some have MABESPAÑOLA on the grips as well. Production ended in May 1964.
