Houser derringer

[teenahlake]

My friend has just inherited a Southerner sideswing derringer, is this covered under pre1898 antiques. Also another small revolver, trying to get info on it but maybe a 12.x series

These guns are all .41 rf, and only made till 1873. Nice little guns, getting more expensive these days. Maybe he'll send you a pic? Antique class for sure.

If it's prę 1946 inherited from a direct relative even if it's 12.6 it can be kept. Read exception to grandfather in. Bottom on page.
