ThePedersoli Derringer Liegi Deluxe cal. .44 is a faithful replica of an 1850 pocket cap pistol. Delux version with decorative finish.
The Pedersoli Derringer Liegi cal. .44 is a unique model of the pistol, which will impressively enrich our collection of black-pocketed guns, and provide a lot of fun at the shooting range.
Pocket-sized black pistol
The gun is compact in size, easily fitting in the hand or pocket. In the Derringer era, it served as a pocket-sized weapon for direct-range defense, so it has no sighting instruments and its effective range is short. A distinctive design feature of the Derringer Liegi model is the lack of a classic trigger, which was hidden in the frame of the gun. Only when the cock is fully tightened, the trigger is extended and we have the opportunity to fire.
The Deluxe version of the pistol has an engraved lock with a floral ornament and a barrel with an elegant brushed finish.
Faithful replica
The faithfulness of the replica's design is emphasized by the original way of loading the bullet and powder, which requires disassembly of the barrel (wrench included). After unscrewing it, we fill the cartridge chamber with powder, apply the bullet and reinstall the barrel.
After applying the cap to the chamber, the gun is ready to fire. The low rate of fire is compensated by the ease of portability and high level of safety.
