Davide Pedersoli Howdah – .45 Colt / .410 Bore 3"

The Davide Pedersoli Howdah is a modern reproduction of the iconic “howdah” pistols once carried for close defense against dangerous game in 19th-century India and Africa. Chambered in both .45 Colt and .410 bore 3", this double-barreled handgun combines historical appeal with practical versatility.

Featuring a break-action design with double triggers, the Howdah is built with Pedersoli’s signature craftsmanship. The case-hardened frame, deep blued barrels, and finely checkered walnut grips create a classic aesthetic that pays homage to the originals. The over/under barrels provide the shooter with two quick shots, making it equally appealing as a collector’s piece or a functional field companion.

This example comes in its original Pedersoli hard case with manuals, lock, and accessories, showing minimal signs of handling. Whether displayed as part of a fine collection or enjoyed at the range, the Howdah blends history, quality, and performance in a striking package.
