Engraved Remington Model 95 Double Deringer
serial #368, 41 RF, 3'' barrel with bright good bores showing scattered pitting with strong rifling throughout. This ''Type 2'' deringer retains 98% original nickel finish, showing expected light handling and edge wear with some scattered light bubbling and oxidation staining about the barrel rib and butt. The hammer, trigger, ejector, and barrel latch have toned to an even gunmetal patina with the latch and hammer, retaining generous original fire blue, faintly visible to the naked eye and quite pronounced under direct light. It displays period engraving throughout, with foliate flourishes about the sides of the frame and flanks of the muzzle, with geometric zig-zag and dotted swirl motifs along the barrels and simple dotted-line work along the backstrap, and light oxidation staining is faintly visible throughout the recessed areas of the engravings. The smooth mother-of-pearl grips remain excellent showing only minimal handling wear. The Type 1 ''E. REMINGTON & SONS, ILION. N.Y.'' two-line barrel address remains largely crisp and legible with some minor softening, the hinge remains intact, and the deringer locks up tightly. A charming example of these popular deringers. (26B10826-178) {ANTIQUE} [Dr. W. Lloyd Hudson Jr. Collection] (1000/1500)
