$0.00

The Remington Rifle Canes, produced from the post-Civil War period until 1886, are unique collectibles that combine practicality and innovation. These firearms hidden within walking sticks come in two main types: the No. 1 Rifle Cane, which fires .22 Short rimfire cartridges, and the No. 2 Rifle Cane, which fires .32 Short rimfire cartridges. Both models feature a variety of handle styles, such as small and large dog heads, and curved handles in different lengths. They are covered in black Gutta Percha, known for its durability, and measure between 33½ to 36½ inches. Initially equipped with internal hammers, the design was later improved with a rod mechanism for better reliability. With at least 1,750 units produced, these rifle canes were primarily made for concealed self-defense and are highly valued by collectors today, often featuring unique after-market handles that add to their allure. These canes exemplify personal protection ingenuity and master craftsmanship from a historical era.
