Information

A small single shot derringer witch is almost the same as the Henry/ Philadelphia Deringer exept this is breech loaded instead of muzzle loaded. these where produced aproximently from 1866-1870, it is estimated that around 40,000 where produced. These little derringers came with diferent optins of grips, finish, and engraving. there are many with nickle finish, fully engraved, pearl grips, ivory grips and fancier wooden grips.

They have a 2.5" rifled barrel that slides forewards to load the pistol are are very small little pistols. rumour has it that they made just a handfull of them in .38RF also, but they mainly came in the .41RF (short) witch is the same cartridge that the famous Remington 1866 Derringer fires also. These are a rather rare pistol.
