Let me add another two to my list.
1: The Walther PPK. Popularized by the James Bond movies, this sleek, concealable little gun has, to my mind, great eye appeal. Clean, classic lines. And yet… whenever I talk to someone who tells me that the only gun they own is a PPK I know that the only thing they have that comes close to real world experience came from watching Sean Connery in those movies. I have one (actually made by Walther in Germany) that I inherited from a close friend who passed away 11 years ago. I know, in my heart of hearts, that the only reason he bought it was because of those movies.
2: Henry Deringer's .41 caliber pocket pistol. Best known as the gun that killed President Lincoln, these elegant little guns were, in their time, the epitome of firearms manufacturing craftsmanship. Back in the day they were only sold in pairs. If you wanted one, you had to buy the set of two.
I have a set of reproductions, manufactured by Uberti, that were offered by the now defunct U.S. Historical Society back in 1979/1980. They sent an original Henry Deringer pistol off to Uberti who then reproduced exact copies of the origin. The closest thing you can get to it today are the Davide Pedersoli reproductions but they are pricey! Around $400+ for one of their .45 caliber reproduction. Lots of money for a very small gun! Nice, but nowhere near as nice, or historically accurate, as the U.S. Historical Society reproductions.
Photo No. 1 is of the US Historical Society set (Uberti) issued back some 35+ years ago.
Photo No. 2 Is the Davide Pedersoli Deringer that is currently available (thought somewhat pricey*).
*"Though somewhat pricey:" I do have a Pedersoli Deringer that I purchased and made a presentation case for. Used an old cigar box, cut out inserts to accommodate the Deringer, plus "antique style" screwdriver & nipple wrench (purchased from Dixie Gun Works), lined it all with green felt and natural wood finish. A very pretty little gun and display piece but nowhere near as nice as the US Historical Society offering.
