    My number one Derringer moment in movies: Colonel Mortimer (Lee Van Cleef) drops his 1866 Remington derringer from the sleeve to his palm, aims and shoots hunchback Wild (Klaus Kinski). For a Few Dollars More is the film.

    • @Shaun_Jones
      @Shaun_Jones 8 місяців тому

      It has a few problems. The biggest is that the barrels are all slightly misaligned; whether that’s due to poor quality control or a baffling design choice I don’t know. It’s also pretty bulky and heavy for what you get; a snubnose .38 special revolver isn’t much bigger, is sometimes lighter, and holds one more shot. The derringer has an atrocious trigger pull due to being double-action only and not being well designed; I believe the trigger breaks at around 12 pounds, which means that you could hang a full-size brick off the trigger and it wouldn’t go off. It isn’t even all that powerful; sure it uses .357 magnum, but with its tiny barrels you aren’t getting full powder burn, resulting in low muzzle velocity and blinding muzzle flash.

    A Sharps Derringer appeared in , Death on Nile' movie from 1978, the story played in 1930s, so the weapon was outdated. In Germany, i am german, percussion deringers, mostly single shot and smoothbore, had been sold up to 1930s, not realy for selfdefence, but fruit plantages owners and socalled Feldschützen ( field protectors) used it to scare annimals.

    Very good video. One thing that isn't mentioned much about derringers, is women often carried them in the old west for personal defense. Particularly, women engaged in the "world's oldest profession" , Mattie Silks for example, who ran the House of Mirrors, a high-end brothel in Denver, carried a pair of Remington Doubles in specially stitched pockets in her dresses. Also, thanks for featuring Wild Wild West { it's a guilty pleasure film of mine } , and another film the COP 357 derringer was featured in, was in Blade Runner where it was used by the character Leon in one of the early scenes of the movie.

    My friend at schools older brother brought one of these back from the US. Just wrapped on dirty socks in his luggage. Ammo and all. This was a very long time ago, obviously. It stayed in the family for ages until someone said “ you know you’ll go to jail if you’re caught with that?” I think they were so told the propellant will have degraded so much as to be useless. Anew at, they got rid of it in a firearms amnesty box. It was the two calibre version.

    Lincoln did have a bodyguard that night but he was in a bar drinking. In fact as bodyguards go he was probably the worst in history. One think he was very good at was talking his way out of these things.
    Some interesting facts about the assassination of Lincoln. Sometime prior to the assassination one of Lincoln's son, Robert Todd Lincoln had his life saved when he was almost killed by a train passing by while Robert was trying to but rail tickets on the platform. The man who saved Robert's life was John Wilkes Booth.
    With him the night he died was a US army officer Major Henry Reed Rathbone. And yes he was related to the actor Basil Rathbone. It would have been interesting if they had met though Henry died in 1911 when Basil was 19. Even before John Wilkes Booth Henry hated actors. So the meeting may have been a bit difficult. Though Basil would reach the rank of captain in WW1 and was awarded the Military Cross for "conspicuous daring and resource on patrol." So maybe that would have softened the Old Boy up a bit.
    And slightly off topic. For those who remember the sword fight in the film Robin Hood with Errol Flynn where Flynn kills Rathbone. Then you may be surprised to know that in reality Flynn would have lasted a matter of seconds in a real sword fight with Rathbone. At school Rathbone had excelled at fencing and was twice the British Army Fencing Champion. What made Flynn, and later Tyrone Power, look good was Rathbone who taught them the finer art of swordsmanship.

    Then again, that anime adaptation woefully makes that trait of hers be quite underused. Oh, well, here's to hoping the alt-universe Trigun: Stampede redeems that flaw.

If you look up "Lady Derringer" you will find these exact grips on an American Derringer model 1 "Lady Derringer" model. The company had been making new derringer pistols since at least the 1970s.

      Bond Arms are designed that way as well. Built like tank, customizable, and fun to shoot. Only they dont fire +P ammo, as you dont need it for close range work. Use standard loads or light loads for recoil management.

    A derringer, chambered in .41 cal but but loaded with a .410 shotgun shell, was a brutally efficient self-defense firearm at close range.

    No one searched anyone back in the old west, especially the ladies , that would be a affront to womanhood . A punishable offense. The idea guns were banned in town limits is a myth . Visible guns from Cowboys spending their hard won pay on drink and gals is one thing. Hidden small guns were everywhere ... It was known they were everywhere with a wink and a nod . It was always interesting to me that Doc Holliday , had visible guns in Tombstone , when the Earps were enforcing no carrying guns within the town limits, the reason for the OK Coral shootout .
