RARE ONE OF A KIND EXPERIMENTAL OR PROTOTYPE OF AN OVER-SIZED REMINGTON-RYDER MAGAZINE PISTOL.

Cal purported to be 44 RF Henry. In the white with 9″ rnd bbl that has full length magazine tube and is all steel construction. Made exactly to scale of the much smaller orig Ryder magazine pistol. It is overall about 13-5/8″ long by about 6″ high, bottom of grip to top of breech block spur and about 3/4″ thick through the grip & frame. It appears that this is a working model and possibly could have been fired although the mechanism is balky and difficult to operate. Obviously this pistol never went into production. PROVENANCE: The Elliott Burka Estate Collection. CONDITION: Magazine tube is not properly attached and has no internal tube although it appears that the internal mechanism of the pistol is completely functional and probably would have worked if further experimentation had followed. Overall retains a mottled natural grey metal patina with rough machine marks. 4-56540 JR188 (5,000-10,000) – Lot 1125

Auction: Firearms - March 2015

Please Note: All prices include the hammer price plus the buyer’s premium, which is paid by the buyer as part of the purchase price. The prices noted here after the auction are considered unofficial and do not become official until after the 46th day.
