I like the 1908 as well. It looks just like mine. Does yours have the magazine safety?

RUN2424, just don't ever break it down past the field strip stage or you'll never get it back together. I took one completely apart a long time ago, and I learned never to do that again.

Nice collection.
I have the 1908 Vest Pocket .25 (made in 1909).



I've only shot it once, but it's a nice shooter and surprisingly accurate!

I love to shoot all of these guns. The .25 is indeed surprisingly accurate.

Here are my .380 Hammerless (1922) and my .25 ACP Vest Pocket (1913)

You seem to be missing one. I just wish mine was as minty as the ones you have!

It shoots nicely. The .38acp has become one of my favorite rounds, even if I get blank stares when I ask about it at gunshow ammotables.
