COP .357 4 Shot Derringer , .357 Magnum. Unfired Condition W/Box, Gorgeous. Trades Welcome.
Description:
The COP .357 is a 4-shot Derringer-type pistol chambered for .357 Magnum. The double-action weapon is about twice as wide and substantially heavier than the typical .25 automatic pistol. However, its relatively compact size and powerful cartridge made it an option for a defensive weapon or a police backup gun. It was designed by Robert Hillberg based on his earlier work on the Hillberg Insurgency Weapon. From 1983 to 1989, it was manufactured by the now-defunct COP Inc. of California, US (COP stood for Compact Off-Duty Police). In 1990, it was briefly manufactured by American Derringer. The COP .357 is quite robust in design and construction. It is made of solid stainless steel components. Cartridges are loaded into the four separate chambers by sliding a latch that "pops up" the barrel for loading purposes, similar to top-break shotguns. Each of the four chambers has its own dedicated firing pin. It uses an internal hammer, which is activated by depressing the trigger to hit a ratcheting/rotating striker that, in turn, strikes one firing pin at a time. Older "pepperboxes" also used multiple barrels, but the barrels were the parts that rotated. The COP .357 operates similarly to the Sharps Derringer of the 1850s, in that it uses the ratcheting/rotating striker, which is completely internal, to fire each chamber in sequence. In excellent appearing unfired condition in numbered to the gun factory box and sleeve. A real Gem that is very hard to find in this complete package and condition.
