Original flint or purcussion pistols by Henry Deringer could be anywhere from 28 to 50 caliber. Remington Arms made several different "Derringer" pistols (note the difference in spelling) ranging from 17 to 41 caliber. The most widely recognized Remington derringer is the over/under double barrelled Elliot's patent chambered for 41 rimfire cartridges. Modern copies of these are readily available today in 22, 38, and 45 caliber. Dozens (hundreds?) of other small, easily concealed, pistols and revolvers have also been called Deringer/Derringer/Daringer, etc, by most people even if not by their manufacturer.

The 9 mm is preferred over the 38. The two bullets are about the same size and frequently will work from the same pistol. Police departments that used to use the 38 have gone over to the 9 mm or 45. If you are shooting in international competitions, you would need 9 mm. 38 would be useless. Any strictly American sizes will become useless.
