MEMPHIS TN F.H. CLARK & CO. Antique DERINGER Engraved SOUTHERN Civil War 42 Antebellum Pocket Sidearm Hideout Gun
Description: MEMPHIS TN F.H. CLARK & CO. Antique DERINGER Engraved SOUTHERN Civil War 42 Antebellum Pocket Sidearm Hideout Gun Here we present an antique Deringer Pistol Retailed by F.H. Clark of Memphis, Tennessee, made circa 1850. This example is marked “F.H. Clark & Co. MEMPHIS”. F.H. Clark & Company of Memphis was one of just fifteen authorized agents for Henry Deringer selling his famous pocket pistols. In operation from 1841 to 1870, F.H. Clark & Company sold general merchandise, in addition to arms from Henry Deringer and Deringer’s copyists. The name “Deringer” often invokes certain historical event, characters or moments in film. Deringer’s name has become both a noun and a catch-all term. President Abraham Lincoln was shot and killed with one of Henry Deringer’s pocket sized percussion pistols, the night John Wilkes Booth revenged the South at the Ford Theater. They conjure images of the California Gold Rush, as well as riverboat gamblers. These pistols were very practical for the time, being small and concealable and of large bore size. The overall condition is good. Original patina. Strong action. The bore is good for its age and has retained deep rifling. Lightly worn surfaces on the wood. Traditional floral engraved lock and hammer as well as around the breech of the barrel and the trigger guard. German silver accents. A nice period copy of a Deringer that was sold by Southern dealer F.H. Clark in the antebellum period! Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 3-3/4 inches. Caliber: .42 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 $1950 #227969 SOLD Antique: Yes |
