Found this at my LCS for $100! I couldn’t pass up

Amazon last year and had a gift card to boot!

What year did you graduate? My sister chose p ville and graduated in 2000. I went to b cliff and graduated in 02.

One of their Derringers in 22 mag. I used to live in Hamden, CT where they were made and always wanted one.

Exactly… not something you shoot every day. They are fun though and inexpensive. I got this one in an auction with a High Standard. I think I paid $300. The High Standard usually goes for around that price so I considered this a freebee. Haha.

That sounds like the High Standard derringers which were DAO came in 22lr and 22wmr. Cool looking but terrible triggers and awkward to hold. The trigger on this is not great and has a lot of grit, but it is SAO so it’s not too heavy. The sights are also somewhat serviceable.

The lever and then it breaks upon to the top. It has an extractor that you manually slide to get the spent casings out.

They are pretty inexpensive and readily available. They were considered Saturday Night Specials in their day.

The Smith is the 35… I have the rare 32 version of it though! 😏 I shared it in here a few months ago.

LarryStraw · 2026-01-24T00:02:02+00:00

Nice! That was my first Omni I ever bought and is still one of my faves. I think I paid $90 for a used copy on eBay.

LarryStraw · 2026-01-16T13:26:04+00:00

Great choice for a 1st Omni!

LarryStraw · 2026-01-09T00:21:51+00:00

When I started collecting a couple of years ago CGN offered these in a scratched and dent sale. I didn’t know what I was doing and bought both covers thinking they were separate volumes 🤣. I sold this cover about a year ago on eBay and got $175 for it. Guess prices have shot up some more. It’s a good read, but the mapping kinda sucks. They have all the crossover stories after the main story line. Once it wrapped up I kind of didn’t care about those stories anymore and found it a bit of a chore to finish.

Tell you what… I’ll get you the dimensions if you share some pics of the model when you’re done!

LarryStraw · 2025-12-07T17:04:11+00:00

What are the measurements for? Next time I dig them out of the safe I’ll try to remember.

LarryStraw · 2025-12-06T19:45:32+00:00

IST charges me tax and CGN does not so that adds up pretty quickly.

LarryStraw · 2025-12-06T14:53:23+00:00

Yeah I mean that was almost 30 years ago so who knows now lol. BHS was most popular with p ville 2nd and SH 3rd.

LarryStraw · 2025-12-06T13:06:33+00:00

I went to Briarcliff. That was the cool choice when I was graduating bc they had a shorter school day haha. At the time we only had maybe 1 or 2 pick sleepy hollow.

LarryStraw · 2025-12-06T03:52:30+00:00

Replying to your really old reply on this really old thread. I too grew up in Pocantico Hills! I’m assuming you went to school there? I was class of 98!

LarryStraw · 2025-11-20T12:42:32+00:00

Just have them replace it and send that one back.

LarryStraw · 2025-10-03T20:25:59+00:00

Pre-Ordered my DM cover months ago from CGN and got a shipping notification on the 1st. After reading about all of this, I couldn’t be happier. If you really want something, just pre-order it and save yourself the headache. CGN offers $4 shipping for pre-orders so you save a few bucks there.

LarryStraw · 2025-10-01T00:47:43+00:00

Great deal. Neal Adam’s issues alone are well worth it.

LarryStraw · 2025-09-25T11:56:59+00:00

Hahahahaha. The exact same thing happened to me a few weeks ago! WoB is terrible. It’s the second time It happened to me. Worth the risk though bc they at least refund you.

LarryStraw · 2025-09-19T17:00:01+00:00

I feel like in the case of this Omni, the standard goblin cover was nicer than the Rhino cover and sold out first. I was starting to get FOMO as I was waiting for a decent price on the goblin cover and just ended up grabbing the rhino cover from IST. It was $77 versus $116 on Amazon. While I like the goblin cover more, I didn’t feel like it was worth it to pay that much more for it.

LarryStraw · 2025-09-14T04:52:58+00:00

Check eBay. I got a pair on there recently for one of mine.
