Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
Although the Colt name is synonymous with revolvers, during the latter part of the 19th century the company produced a trio of .41 rimfire single-shots that set the stage for a popular .22 version years later. The First, Second, and Third Model Derringers were Colt’s first cartridge handguns, (notwithstanding cap-and-ball conversions). Production started in 1870 for all three guns and ended in 1912 for the Alexander Thuer-designed Third Model.
With the advent of double-actions and semi-automatics, one would assume Colt was finished with single-shot Derringers. But the popularity of television westerns during the 1950s and ’60s inspired Colt to reissue the Thuer Deringer as the Fourth Model (made for Colt by Butler of New Haven, Conn., which later sold the guns under its own name) in .22 Short. Like the Third Model, it was loaded by placing the hammer on half-cock and pivoting the barrel to the right, which also ejected the cartridge case.
The 4th Model Derringer was mainly for display purposes (due to the soft alloy barrel with no liner) and was also sold in "Lord & Lady" matching boxed pairs. The "Lord" had a gold plated frame, black oxide coated barrel and walnut grips, whilst the "Lady" had gold plating on both the frame and barrel and had faux pearl grips.
