Description:
SILVER MOUNTED Antique PHILADELPHIA DERINGER Style Percussion POCKET Pistol
1850s Self Defense BELT/MUFF/POCKET Pistol!
Here we present an antique Deringer Percussion Belt Pistol, made circa the 1850s. This single shot pistol fires a .44 caliber ball and was intended for self-defense. A stately gentleman could easily hide this in his pocket or belt, or a lady could hide it within her muff or purse. 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. Strong action. The bore is in good shape. Solid wood, and has been re-varnished/oiled.
Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction.
