You are bidding on a Remington Model 4 Double Derringer .41 Cal Rimfire Pistol. The piece features a 3" tip up barrel, blue'd steel finish, one original .41 rimfire round, and black grips. Remington manufactured more than 150,000 over-under double-barreled derringers from 1866 until the end of their production in 1935. The gun was made only in .41 rimfire. The Remington derringer design doubled the capacity, while maintaining a compact size, by adding a second barrel on top of the first and pivoting the barrels upwards to reload. Each barrel then held one round, and a cam on the hammer alternated between top and bottom barrels. There were four models with several variations. The Remington derringer was in .41 Short caliber and achieved wide popularity. The .41 Short bullet moved very slowly, at about 425 feet per second, around half the speed of a modern .45 ACP. It could be seen in flight, but at very close range, such as at a casino or saloon card table, it could easily kill. This is a Curio & Relic firearm. FFL transfer or NICS background check required. Serial number is 1418.
