It is said that to become a master craftsman in Europe, journeymen had to produced scale miniatures to the satisfaction of their masters in order to earn the title of master themselves. Weston is known for making miniature versions of many well-known firearms throughout history, with this example being a propriety design of his that is loosely based on a single shot derringer like the Colt No. 3. Includes a velvet wrapped presentation case with Weston Reforma manufacturer/retailer marks inside, some primers, and a cleaning/ejection rod.
