1850s ANTIQUE Percussion DERINGER Pistol
Description: 1850s ANTIQUE Percussion DERINGER Pistol Copy of Henry Deringer’s Famous Pocket Gun Here we present an antique Deringer Percussion Pistol, made circa 1850. Henry Deringer was a very successful Pennsylvanian gunsmith who started his own company in his early twenties, circa 1809. It was not until the 1850s that his prototypical “Deringer” percussion pistol became extremely popular. Once it did become popular, the basic design was copied in dozens of different shops. Not only was it copied, but Deringer’s good name was stamped on guns made by others, some of them not up to the quality standards of Deringer himself. The inventor was apparently very worried about protecting his good name, so he pursued and sued any of the counterfeiters that he could find and warned the buying public to beware of his spurious imitators. This piece is an example of one made by a competitor of Henry Deringer’s. It is not marked by any maker, though it is engraved. The overall condition is good. The metal surfaces are smooth. The engraving is clear. The walnut stock shows use and has been repaired near the muzzle. Barrel wedge is absent. The bore is dark with strong rifling. The action is excellent. Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 1-1/8 inches. Caliber: .38 Percussion Overall condition as seen in photos. Very Fast. Very Safe. FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE. Delivered directly to your door by express mail! Guaranteed AUTHENTIC & Includes CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY. ancestryguns $850 #5205 SOLD Antique: Yes |
