Nice ENGRAVED European Double Action HAMMERLESS Revolver C&R w/BONE GRIPS 

Early 20^th Century SELF DEFENSE Pocket Revolver

Here we present a C&R European Double Action Hammerless Pocket Revolver, manufactured in circa the early-20^th Century. 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 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 nickel finish. Floral engraved frame. The action is strong with some wiggle when lockup up. Both bone grips are in very good shape with minimal handling wear. The bore has dimmed with some small pitting spots.
