1875 - 1912 American Colt No.3 Second Model .41 Rim Fire Obsolete Calibre Factory Nickel Plated Brass Frame Single Shot Derringer With Pivot Barrel & Traces Of Original Factory Nickel Plate Finish. Sn 23166 - 23166 An excellent original .41 Cal Rim Fire, Colt No.3 derringer. Production ran from 1875 through until 1912. The No.3 came in several different variations, or models, with changes being made to the shape of the hammer or the size of the grips. We think this pistol is the No.3 2nd model with the slanting hammer, as opposed to the upright hammer of the 1st model, or larger grips of the 3rd model. Our example has brass frame traces of original factory nickel plate finish & a sheathed trigger. Its 2 ½” steel barrel correctly pivots to the right for loading (the hammer must be at half cock to pivot the barrel). The pistol is 5” overall length. The barrel has a brass blade fore sight. Its rifled bore has staining & residue consistent with age and use. The top of the barrel is signed by the manufacturer ‘Colt’ and the brass frame has .41 Cal. It has its original American walnut grips which are secured with a single recessed brass screw bolt. The wood has just light scuffs consistent with age & handling. The serial numbers are often stamped beneath the grips, and are not visible unless the grips are removed (we have not removed the grips). Its loading and firing actions work crisply. The price includes UK delivery. NB as an obsolete calibre rim fire derringer no licence is required to own this item in the UK if retained as a part of a collection or display.
