Product Description

ANTIQUE IVORY Engraved REMINGTON No. 1 Saw Handle Vest Pocket .22 DERINGER

ANTIQUE and 1 of 17,000 Made During Production Run

Here we present an antique Remington No. 1 Saw Handle Deringer (also known as the Vest Pocket Pistol), made from 1865-1888. This is an example of the .22 rimfire cartridge Vest Pocket. Invented by William H. Elliot, only about 17,000 of these guns were made in total over the 23 years production run. This single shot pistol is very simple in mechanics. Place the hammer in the most rearward position and load a cartridge. The hammer also acts as the loading gate and breach block.

This neat little pistol would have been a very handy pistol to have stuck down in one’s vest pocket while paddle-wheeling down the Mississippi River when the poker game went awry!

The overall condition is good. Strong action. The bore is in good shape for its age. Solid grips with less than average wear. The frame is engraved with traditional designs. The barrel address is worn.

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

Barrel is 3-1/4 inches.

Caliber: .22 Rimfire
