Gun Report
American Derringer Co. Standard Model 38 Special, $212 (Used)
Read Gun Tests Rating and Recommendation
GUN TESTS GRADE: A
The American Derringer Company handgun is a very good upgrade of the original Remington design. The construction is robust, and the pistol is well polished. The grips fit well. The plunger to release the barrel lock is an excellent addition to the derringer design, and the hammer block really sold us on the pistol. While we question the viability of the derringer for personal defense, they are still popular handguns. If you must purchase a derringer, this is the one to have.
