Description:
CASED & FACTORY ENGRAVED Antique COLT Second Model .41 Caliber Deringer   

BRITISH PROOFED w/SCROLL ENGRAVING from the FACTORY

Here we present an antique Cased and British Proofed Colt Second Model Deringer pistol made circa 1880 in Hartford, Connecticut. In 1870 Colt purchased National Arms Company and began producing a Deringer pistol based on its design. This became Colt’s First Model Deringer, and it was Colt’s first single shot pistol. It was followed in quick succession by a very similar pistol, called Colt’s Second Model Deringer, which is this one.
Both of these pistols were chambered for .41 rimfire and featured a barrel that rotated counter-clockwise for loading and unloading. This little pistol was made from 1870-1890, with a total production of only 9000. This is one of the few Colt pistols to come standard from the factory with scroll engraving. Chambered in .41 rimfire, this little single-shot packed a sizeable projectile. The Colt address is on top of the barrel.

This example includes a wooden case with a London trade label on the lid. The case includes a cleaning tool, a key, and two rounds of .41 rimfire ammunition.

The overall condition is fine. Strong action. The bore is in good shape for its age. Both grips contain less than average handling. Numbers match. Markings are sharp. The included case is good.

Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction.

Barrel is 2-1/2 inches.

Caliber: .41 rimfire
