HELP- -PLZ
I have a 38 cal Rohm derringer, dbl barrell, over/under, breaks up instead of down like a shotgun
made in Sontheim Germany
it has 3 German proof marks and what appears to be a swastika

I can't seem to find this in any gun book, or German small arms book.
Have gone to many gun shops to no avail.

I would appreciate any information you might have. I am quite sure it was pre WW II, since it has the proof marks.....have no idea as to the value or anyhting else.

Would greatly appreciate any information you might have. THANKS

    If the address is "Sontheim" it's a post W W II product.

    Prior to the enaction of GCA 68, many inexpensive handguns produced by Rohm were imported and sold in the U. S.

    Most had the prefix "RG" in their model number.

    I'm not specifically familiar with the derringer, the only thing I can tell you is that it doesn't have any great value, and never left the factory with a swastika.
