My guess is a WWI French Ruby pistol.

Granted I don’t have a picture, or description.

Sorry I thought that I deleted this. I couldn't post the pictures. They were too large from my phone.
Can i send them to someone to decrease the size?

The reason there were no pictures is that it is a ghost gun.

If you zoom in on the left side pic it says "1913 Premier Patent". Maybe Ruby is a category term?

https://www.gunboards.com/threads/1913- ... al.316205/

Tomas De Urizar, Barcelona, Spain Eibar type copy of the 1906 Browning, Made from the 1920s until 1936. A Spanish made gun. I don't believe Senor Urizar was one of the four gun makers that survived the 1936 civil war. Parts for these old " Ruby " type guns are non existence, because of all the hand fitting (read fileing to fit ) even if you found a like item donor gun, the parts are not drop in. Sorry about that.

I believe it’s used for several makers. My grandpa brought one back for WWI France.
He took it off a German officer, that he killed. It was in a luger holster. He took it back to their camp. When he opened the holster he was surprised and disappointed. Turns out the German had taken this one as a war prize from a French officer. They tended to carry the one he got.
