Product Description

Antique Liege Proofed BELGIAN Self-Defense Double Action POCKET Revolver   

1880s Belgian Conceal & Carry Revolver

Here we present an antique Liege Proofed Double Action Pocket Revolver, manufactured in Liege, Belgium circa the 1880s. It is not unlike the “British Bulldog” revolvers in many ways, though this one is certainly on the higher end of quality.

This little self-defense pistol would have been most at home in the pocket of anyone in the busy city of Liege, London, or Paris during the tumultuous times of the late 1800s to early 1900s. These type pistols are small, light and simple. The “Pocket Pistol” name says it all. They were the “Saturday Night Specials” of the 16th-19th century. Before the Deringer, they were “Gentleman’s” or “Muff Pistols”, typically, a smaller pistol that was easily concealed. They were favored among the gentry and women because of these traits. Men would carry them concealed in a waistcoat pocket and women would hide them in a hand muff.

The overall condition is good. Strong action. Bright, rifled bore. Solid grips. Markings are legible. The lanyard ring/cleaning tool is missing.
