Scarce Blue Finish Remington No. 1 Vest Pocket Pistol

Manufactured from 1865 to 1888, the Remington No. 1 Vest Pocket Pistol is also known as the Saw Handle Derringer. The top of the frame is marked with the two line address/patent date marking, and the matching serial number is marked on the left side of the frame under the grip and on the underside of the barrel. Brass cone front and frame notch rear sights and fitted with nicely figured smooth walnut grips.

ConditionVery fine. The pistol retains 80% plus original bright blue finish with some pitting on the upper left side of the frame, some scattered minor dings and a smooth gray patina on the grip frame. Most of the original bright niter blue finish remains on the hammer. The grips are fine with 98% original finish and showing some minor dents and dings. The markings are clear. The action is fine.
