The Wellman-14A was developed by Cavrish gunsmith Byrne Wellman in the town of Corveny shortly before the start of the 4th TMIU War. The weapon was originally designed for use by the Cavrish Military as a standard service pistol. The first models of the weapon were produced personally by Byrne and a small group of peers shortly after the design was finalized. The models were submitted to the Cavrish Military Soon after for testing and the weapon was adopted just before the start of the 4th TMIU War, Byrne being paid $84,000 for the design. The weapon quickly became the most widely produced pistol in Caverland with 1.1 million models having been produced as of the 4th TMIU War.
