Fie derringers, a type of small, pocket-sized pistol, were popularized in the 19th century, particularly by the Philadelphia-based firearm manufacturer Deringer, founded by Henry Deringer in the 1800s. These firearms became well-known for their use in personal protection and were notably used by historical figures, including John Wilkes Booth, who assassinated President Abraham Lincoln with a Deringer pistol. Variations of the original design have been produced by various manufacturers over the years.
