National Arms Company Single Shot No.2 Derringer, serial #369, .41 RF, 2 1/2" barrel with a mostly bright very good plus bore, which shows some scattered light oxidation with some light pitting near the muzzle. The barrel is primarily a smooth pewter and brown patina with some very minor pinprick pitting and oxidation, also with a number of impact marks along its right sharp edge. The brass frame retains about 92-95% original silver plating which is darkening to a deep blue-gray hue, the worn-through areas a dull ocher. The engraving on the frame is still sharp, the barrel slightly softened. The smooth rosewood grips rate excellent, with nearly all their original varnish, the left grip showing slightly more wear along its sharp edge; they are stamp-numbered to the gun.
