Description
A two-piece lot featuring a Davis Industries Model DM-22 double-barrel derringer pistol chambered in .22 Magnum, paired with a fitted Bucheimer leather holster. The firearm exhibits a highly polished chrome or nickel-plated finish throughout the frame and barrel cluster, complemented by smooth, reddish-brown wood or synthetic wood grips. The pistol is marked on the left barrel cluster “DAVIS INDUSTRIES CHINO, CA. U.S.A.” The left side of the frame bears the serial number 136830 and safety indicator markings “U.S. FOR SAFE.” The right side of the barrel is marked “MODEL DM-22 CAL. .22 MAG.” The action is a single-action break-open design typical of modern derringers. The accompanying Bucheimer holster is constructed of brown leather with contrasting white stitching and features a bright metal snap closure. The reverse of the holster is stamped with the Bucheimer stylized ‘B’ logo, “CLARK CO.,” and “14AS-2BR,” indicating a specific fit for small pocket pistols. This set represents a common pairing of a compact, late 20th-century defensive firearm with a quality period holster.
