Found this little fellow today:
Colt Model 1908 "Vest Pocket" in .25ACP. The silver dollar is for size comparison. If you're young, you might not know what a silver dollar is. Ask your grandpa.
The serial number says this one is from 1912, which makes it my oldest 20th century gun. Functions fine as far as I can tell-- barrel looks okay, it's not rusty inside, the safeties work, and the striker strikes. Looking forward to shooting it!
Now if I can just figure out how to attach it to my keychain, it'd make a great fob.
