Sagebrush Burns, SASS # 14226 Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 Saw something today I've never encountered before. A friend bought it recently and showed it to me. It is a Crescent-Davis single shot pistol in 410 gauge. It is a break action with an external hammer, blued barrel, case hardened frame and hammer, nice wood pistol grip and fore stock. It is in very excellent condition, maybe 98%+. I understand it was manufactured in the late 20s and it is very sweet. Anybody know anything about these; rarity, value... It is an interesting piece and I'm curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virgil Ray Hality, SASS# 37355 Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 That is unique. While I don't collect old firearms, I don't recall ever seeing "shot pistols" at gun shows and such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G. I. Tarpicker, SASS #998 Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 Sounds interesting. It may, like the Ithaca Car and Burglar gun, be a restricted item requiring a Class III permit from BATFE. The Ithaca was a SxS with very short bbls. and a pistol like grip. I've seen them in 20 ga. and I think they were also made in .410 bore. I doubt if they're SASS legal.
