Can't be answered without knowing who made it.
50-500 usd
the model 36 did come nickel finish. I had one. But don't recall seeing any with the shroud
You need the services of a gunsmith.
The marking of the nickel steel barrel meant that the rifle could be fired with smokeless powder.This powder created more pressure than black powder.
.38 Safety Hammerless (5th Model), made about 1912. The 6" barrel is somewhat rare in this model and if the gun is in top condition could bring over $400.
Impossible to answer without a detailed description of all markings, finish, condition, accessories, box, papers, etc..
Made in the early 1950's, before the HiPower was officially introduced to the US market. Value would be around $2500.
The value of ANY gun is based on the exact make, model, and condition. The Baby Hammerless was not a derringer, but a very tiny revolver with a folding trigger. The value of those revolvers runs about $200 for a working specimen in fair condition. Do NOT attempt to fire this with modern high speed 22 Shorts- it was made for black powder cartridges. Better condition can equal higher prices.
My father owned a 22 cal Colt, in 1936. It was hammerless, with a folding trigger. It was nickel plated. The name on the barrel said ¨´new born baby. I woul like to find one for my collection.
I would contact browning directly in Morgan Utah.They should help in your quest for info.You could also contact them on the net.Good luck.
Your .38 Safety Hammerless (or .38 New Departure) is a first model, built between 1888 and 1902. The serial numbers went to 91417, so yours was likely built somewhere in the early 1890's. Nickel plating was available although I can't tell be the s/n if it is original. Possibly Roy Jenks can.
Yes. It consists of nickel, nickel, and nickel.
