This 1908 Vest Pocket shows honest wear consistent with a century-old pocket pistol. Notably, it retains its factory-original case color hardening on the trigger and manual safety — a premium aesthetic detail Colt collectors specifically look for, and one that doesn't survive on many examples this age.

About the Colt Model 1908 Vest Pocket: Designed by John Moses Browning and known internally at Colt as the "Model N," this hammerless, striker-fired pistol was the ultimate concealed carry piece of the early 20th century — small enough to disappear into a vest pocket. Produced from 1908 to 1948 with roughly 409,000 made, it remains one of Colt's best-selling commercial automatics and a foundational piece of early 20th-century American pocket-pistol history.

Photo Disclaimer
Photos are taken under intense, high-definition lighting to give buyers the clearest possible view of the firearm's true condition. This lighting can occasionally make minor blemishes — small scuffs, finish wear, or surface marks — appear more pronounced than they are in hand. Please call us with any questions about the condition or severity of a specific blemish before or purchasing — we're happy to give you a direct, honest assessment.
