kbob - the barrel on the derringer was originally octagon in shape but in my youth decided that round was more to my liking...here's a pic I found on the net as to what the kit looked like.

I built almost the same kit as a kid with my Dad. Still not a fan of the exposed trigger on these models.

A friend of mine had one of those little 2mm pinfire novelty pistols many years ago. He had shot it once or twice loaded with a single pellet of birdshot. He said it was used to hunt pink elephants.

Sorry drobs. My mistake.

I have a super companion and a .31 Remmy brasser by ASM.

I love those pocket Remingtons! Hopefully that will be my next purchase.

I was looking around on ebay. SEVERAL sellers have those 2mm pinfires on there!
a little pricey, you can get a full size BP revolver for what some are asking. But I still want one!

However, I just went back and looked at some. Read the descriptions carefully. Some, but not all, have filled the barrels with solder. I guess trying to... honestly, I dont know why.

Mine look like these don't know if the barrels are plugged.

I really like those. Maybe I'll be able to get one later on.

Lots of beautiful little mousing pistols here, LOVE them all!!!!

I’m trying to join. “22 rimfire” was introduced as America’s first self contained cartridge and was charged with primer compound and a “pinch” of black powder. My most recent purchase is a true antique from the 1870s, but it needs a little love. I will have it running soon enough. Photo from the auction listing...payment is in the outgoing mail so I’m hoping for arrival in a week or so.

The other gun is a Manhattan "Hero" with a screw off barrel

When you get time post a picture of your pinfires drobs. I love those little things. Watched a video today before work of a guy shooting a tin can with one.

 

[drobs]

Will do. Won't be till May or thereafter. I'm back in Djibouti Africa right now.

 

[maint1517]

Ok, I look forward to seeing them then.
Be safe over there my friend.

Very nice! Keep us updated on your progress on it.

I've been meaning to post this one. It was the first kit I built. It's a Classic Arms Snake Eyes .36 caliber double barrel.

 

[maint1517]

Ok. These are my latest additions. 2mm pinfire single shots. One is setup for blanks, but will be easily converted later today. The other is ready to shoot.

Thanks drobs

 

[Venom007]

does anyone have the one shot stop rating on 2mm pinfire?

 

[maint1517]

[QUOTE="Venom007, post2309, member: 251130"Anyone have the one shot stop rating on 2mm pinfire? [/QUOTE]
Yep. Guaranteed to drop mosquitos with one shot. Butterflies and moths may require two shots. However, the problem is getting them to stay perfectly still while you get point blank to no more than 6 inches away for the first shot.
No guarantee for clean, quick kills.

hello folks! i have decided to start this club because nobody else has. if you have a small blackpowder pistol (even a .50 caliber muff pistol or something ridiculous) then post a picture and you're in the club! these guns can be anything, from a Remington Rider Derringer to a 1863 pocket Remmy. as long as it is meant to be pocket sized runs off of black powder. I'll post my two NAA mini BP revolvers soon, i need to find a good working camera. I'll start, here is my Remington Rider.
