  • Yeah, I got a cool derringer and want to look at that was definitely cool.

  • So where did you get it?

  • I went through a garage sale, and I bought a big safe and inside the safe was that Derek?

  • Okay, so obviously the guy had it in the safe to protect him.

  • Well, generally a gunner.

  • Too safe.

  • Don't do you?

  • No.

  • Good.

  • Because you rarely tell the intruders.

  • Excuse me.

  • God, what was that combination?

  • If I was a gambling man back in the 18 fifties, I guarantee you, right had one.

  • It's been sitting in the safe, and I finally thought, Well, maybe I should get that thing out and see if it's worth anything.

  • I'd like to sell today.

  • If I can get enough money, I want to take my family on a cruise.

  • Oh, this is an actual Darren.

  • Jer dare injure.

  • Correct.

  • Do you know the history behind dare injure?

  • Not really.

  • Okay.

  • There was an actual guy named Guarantee and he only made small guns like this later down the road, when a lot of people started making small guns, they just called him a Darren Jer.

  • I'm pretty sure this is the same exact model that killed Lincoln.

  • Yeah, I can't trace it to Lincoln, but no, this isn't the one that killed Lincoln.

  • They have that gun.

  • Okay.

  • Okay.

  • Ah, lot of people carry guns like this.

  • And the reason why was it was so damn small.

  • It was just straight up protection.

  • Okay?

  • There was no 911 day and it short range.

  • This is really deadly.

  • Der injures were incredibly popular during the 18 hundreds.

  • Unfortunately, the qualities that made them popular with everyday people also made them pretty popular with criminals.

  • There's a really, really good market for these.

  • I mean, there's just not a whole lot of them left.

  • Okay.

  • By the 18 seventies, you've gotten by an inexpensive revolver for 10 box.

  • No one wanted one of these things that people throw my life.

  • So a dare injure made by derringer is really collectible.

  • I'm early der injures some of these guns could go for a lot of money.

  • So how much you want for it?

  • 5000 early dangers are considered pre 18 50.

  • You don't have an early one.

  • It says San Francisco on the top of it.

  • Okay.

  • In 18.

  • 50 No one was living in San Francisco and all the ones before 18 50 had the ramrod right here.

  • Okay, Okay.

  • So the price really drops after 18 50.

  • That's missing the entire trigger guard.

  • And this whole strapped right here, that just really, really beats up the value.

  • Give me your best shot.

  • 600 bucks, immediate beats.

  • It beats up the value that much.

  • It really does $600.

  • It would be worth five times as much with that piece on that about 4000.

  • No, no, I mean, I'd go 7 50 No, I can't.

  • No, you know, it's a really neat gun.

  • It's got some great history.

  • Um, you know, go it fit.

  • But I don't think you're gonna go that.

  • No, I'm not.

  • Okay.

  • Thanks for coming in.

  • Okay.

  • Thanks.

  • I'm not your, however, went down to 600.

  • I mean, I know it was missing the trigger guard, but, uh, that's way too low.

Yeah, I got a cool derringer and want to look at that was definitely cool.
