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.
