Belgian Proofed SELF DEFENSE Folding Trigger 7.65mm Revolver C&R w/HOLSTER

SNUB NOSE European DOUBLE ACTION Sidearm

Here we present a C&R Belgian Proofed Centerfire Folding Trigger Revolver, made in Belgium circa the early 1900s. This little self-defense pistol would have been most at home in the pocket of anyone in the busy cities 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 fine. Original blue finish has been preserved. Excellent action. The bore is in good shape for its age. Markings are legible. Both grips are solid with nice checkering and remain seated firmly. Good holster.
