** SOLD ** Colt 1908 Vest Pocket Hammerless Semi Auto Pistol in .25ACP Caliber **Mfg 1919 - Very Nice**
Description: For consideration is a very nice Colt 1908 Vest Pocket hammerless pistol in .25 auto caliber. The Model 1908 Vest Pocket is a compact, hammerless, striker-fired, semi-automatic single-action pistol. Manufactured by the Colt's Manufacturing Company from 1908 to 1948, it was marketed as a small concealable firearm which could be easily tucked into a vest pocket for unobtrusive carry. Designed by John Moses Browning, the Model 1908 followed Browning’s earlier European version, introduced by Fabrique Nationale de Herstal as the FN Model 1906. Both pistols were chambered for the Browning-invented .25 ACP (Automatic Colt Pistol) cartridge. Known as the Model "N" internally within Colt, the 1908 Vest Pocket is a diminutive 4.5 inches long, and has a 2-inch barrel. Weighing a mere 13 ounces, it is fed by a six-round single column magazine. The pistol’s fixed open iron sights were rather small and rudimentary, but typical for small hideout automatics of its era and adequate for the short range at which it was intended to be used. This particular example has some high edge wear, thinning and handling marks mostly on top of the slide and at the muzzle. The grip safety and trigger still have good case hardening color. The grip panels are in very nice condition being free of cracks or chips. The grip safety and thumb safety work like the day this fine Colt was made.
