Philadelphia Derringer
From Internet Movie Firearms Database - Guns in Movies, TV and Video Games

Philadelphia Derringer - .44 Cal. These percussion cap single shot pistols were manufactured between 1860-1869 by Slotter & Co to compete with Henry Deringer's pistols. (Note spelling. Deringer fought illegal copies of his pistols throughout his life, and the deliberate misspelling "Derringer" eventually caught on.)
One of many small Derringers of the 1850s onwards. Is primarily seen as the murder weapon in the assassination of U.S. President Abraham Lincoln.
