(A) RARE UNMARKED AMERICAN MADE BREECH LOADING PERCUSSION DERRINGER

This unusual, possibly unique, derringer features a heavy octagon barrel that pivots forward on the lower hinge that is released by use of a thin metal band to which the bead front sight is attached. Exposed hammer, spur trigger, and rather large one piece walnut grips. CONDITON: Very good to fine. All metal is now a smooth homogenous dark grey with excellent grips. Mechanically fine with a bright bore. This writer has never seen another such example in over forty years.
