What's the deal behind the half cut trigger guard? I would like to know more.

>Having a holster under your cowboy hat

>>32659698
Wouldn't that make it easier to get it hung up on clothing/something though, since it's now a small hook?

You don't have to stick your hand in a small circle when wrestling a guy to shoot him. Just start to squeeze and you'll eventually find the trigger. also easier to shoot wearing gloves.

you pull the gun up out of the holster. Just be careful putting it back in. Though these were probably Mexican carried

>>32659842
Wait, so this is just a screw holding the cylinder in?

Came here specifically to post Fitzgerald Specials. I love it, but they make me nervous just fucking looking at them. If you were making a movie, it's the weapon you'd give to a brash anti-hero with more guts than brains.

Would this be considered a belly gun?

Every derringer is. However, people don't typically modify them.

Here's the Fitz concept interestingly applied to a Webley chambered in .45acp. Some cosmetic modifications were added as well.

Not cut down or modified. Just a stock Terrier.

there's a different M1 that was even farther cut down

>>32660106
Looking for more examples, I ran into a gun forum and uncovered this fucking travesty:
>It's interesting that I stumbled on this thread today as I was writing this morning in a book on which I'm working about the Shanghai Municipal Police Reserve Unit about W. E. Fairbairn's Fitz Special. As big a fan as WEF was of the 1911 he carried a Fitz New Service for many years as did his son. The Fairbairn Fitzs were built at the SMP Armory. When I was visiting WEF's daughter Dorothea one time, I took her to lunch at the local pub and almost choked on my Strongbow cider when she mentioned that after her father died she turned his Fitz into the police to be destroyed!

I hope to God it's a lie.

This rare short barreled Colt Cloverleaf House Model Revolver manufactured in 1871. The revolver has the scarce 1 and 1 /2 inch round barrel with half-moon front sight blade, four-shot cylinder, early pinch-frame rear sight and high profile hammer spur. The revolver has a full, nickel-plated, finish and two-piece, bird's head, rosewood grips with a varnish finish. "COLT" is roll-stamped on the left side of the barrel. The serial number, "2729" is stamped on the underside of the barrel and on the bottom of the butt. Both serial numbers match. The Colt Cloverleaf House Model is significant because it was the first Colt solid frame revolver chambered for metallic cartridge ammunition.

Where was this description from? Pretty neato.
