Man^d for F. H. Clark & Co. Memphis, Tenn. Agents F. H. CLARK #229 Now, this gun is a little bit different from a genuine Henry Deringer in that this one was produced by the F. H. Clark Company in Memphis. Notice the extra stubby bird head grip. German silver mounted throughout even to the ramrod thimble. Notice that there is no screw holding the barrel to the forearm and is held in place with the wedge only. Very coarse checkering. The caliber is .420. Marked on the breechblock on the top barrel flat: F. H. Clark & Co. Memphis F. H. CLARK #236 Another original F. H. Clark gun but this one has bag grips, steel trigger guard, and steel thimble with a silver nosecap. Notice that this one has a screw in the trigger guard finial holding the barrel to the forearm plus the wedge through the forearm. Made with ramrod and has a tear drop butt cap. The stock has been broken at the rear of the barrel and an ancient steel inlay has been placed in the wood each side of the stock above the triggerguard. Caliber is .430. Marked on the breechplug in the top flat position: F. H. Clark & Co. Memphis F. H. CLARK #280 A fine matched pair of Clark manufactured derringers that I obtained in 1970 from a gun auction in England. How they got to England, I don’t know. With them was the original case with all the compartments broken and loose. The case has been sent to an expert to have it restored. Notice that it is a bag grip type of gun. No screw in the trigger guard finial holding to the barrel. The trigger guard and thimble are steel and the balance of the inlays are German silver. These are apparently the original ramrods. A matched pair of guns are very, very rare; and these two are in very nice condition. Caliber is .440. Marked on the breechblock at the top barrel flat position as follows: F. H. Clark & Co. Memphis F. H. CLARK #217 This is as fine a pair of matched derringers by Clark as money can buy anywhere. Beautifully browned barrels with 100% of the fine French varnish on the wood remaining. Has steel trigger guard and thimble, but does not have a screw in the trigger guard finial holding to the barrel. A rather large sized derringer. Bag grips have silver tear drop butt escutcheon.
