The C22 Classic Derringer is built on a die-cast Zamak-5 alloy frame with steel barrel liners and breech block, combining light weight with steel where pressure matters. The exposed spur hammer and single-action trigger retain the traditional derringer feel while the cross-bolt safety and internal hammer-block add modern security.
Its eye-catching red powder-coat finish is factory-applied and paired with smooth white synthetic pearl grips, giving the pistol a distinctive look rarely found on contemporary pocket guns. Fixed blade and notch sights sit low to minimize snagging yet provide a clear sight picture for close-range work.
At just 4 inches overall length, the micro-sized C22 slips into a pocket, tackle box, or backpack with ease. The top-break action allows quick access to the two chambers for loading and unloading, and the twin firing pins cycle automatically between barrels with each cock of the hammer.
Manufactured in Salt Lake City, Utah between 2002 and Cobra’s 2020 bankruptcy, this example follows the later serial format, indicating it was produced toward the end of the line.
