Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Italian-made "Corsair" double-barrelled pistol is a mid-20th-century percussion firearm produced under the Corsair trade name by various small Italian workshops and importers, rather than a single factory. These side-by-side, two-shot pistols typically feature fixed barrels mounted on a solid frame, external hammers (or occasionally a single hammer), and two triggers, designed for short-range self-defense or as black-powder replicas. Barrels are often stamped with the Corsair name, while finishes range from plain blue steel with wood grips to more decorative models. The front sight is a gold bead that is minimal and largely ornamental. Rifling is generally shallow in the 8" barrels, making accuracy modest, and hammers can fall from full-cock or be placed on half-cock for safety. Because multiple makers and importers used the Corsair name, identification relies on Italian proof marks, date codes, or other minor stamps rather than the trade name alone; collectors treat most examples as curiosities or novelty black-powder pistols rather than precision antiques.
