Description:
Scarce Antique JAMES REID “My Friend” .22 Short KNUCKLE DUSTER ENGRAVED
1870s Era BRASS KNUCKLE - PISTOL Combination
Here we present an antique James Reid Manufactory “My Friend” Knuckle Duster Revolving Pistol, made circa 1878. These were produced from circa 1870 through 1882 with a total production of around 20,000 examples produced in the .22 caliber. The maker, James Reid, was born in Belfast, Ireland, was trained as a gunsmith in Glasgow, Scotland, and then migrated to the United States where he first set up shop in New York City. In 1865, he moved his family and then his shop to Catskill to get out of the city and into the country for health reasons.
He kept a gristmill and his gun manufactory there, where he spent the next decade and a half producing his famous little gun. And was successful in spite of the fierce competition of 1870s small arms manufacturing. This was a time when small, single action pocket revolvers were so plentiful that Colt could hardly compete. But this pistol had the seven shots of .22 and the ability to be turned around and used to knock some teeth out. Not a bad feature on a revolver for a rough and tumble end of the 19th Century. There is certainly no wonder why it would be called “My Friend”. This specimen features a nicely engraved nickel plated brass frame. The cylinder holds 7 shots of .22 rimfire.
The overall condition is fine. Original engraving and nickel finish. The action is excellent. Bores are smooth and in good condition.
This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction.
Barrel Length is 1-1/2 inches.
Caliber: .22 Rimfire (short, black powder)
Overall condition as seen in photos.
Very Fast. Very Safe. FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE. Delivered directly to your door by express mail!
Guaranteed AUTHENTIC & Includes CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY.
