Description:
“PEPPERBOX” Deringer PISTOL Antique REMINGTON-ELLIOT .22 Caliber Rimfire

5-Shot Ring Trigger Deringer Type Pistol

Here we present an antique Remington-Elliot .22 Caliber Short Pepperbox Pistol, made circa 1864 in Ilion, New York. Manufactured from 1863 to 1888, this is a five shot .22 caliber pistol using a cluster of stationary barrels and a revolving firing pin. It is similar in concept to the Sharps Pepperboxes. German silver blade front and frame notched rear sights. This pepperbox is functionally double action only, with the concealed hammer operated entirely by the motion of the ring trigger. The grip section is contoured so the butt rests on the ring finger. This repeating design was able to utilize the new rimfire ammunition like Smith & Wesson, without infringing on Smith & Wesson’s Rollin White Patent. They made very nice, easy to use and compact firearms for 19th century conceal and carry.

The overall condition is good. The action is strong except the firing pin rotates only intermittently. The bores are in good condition. The right grip has been repaired at some point in time, but it does remain solid. The example includes a homebuilt display case.
