I have seen only one Game Getter. They came in a few different configurations. Depending on barrel lengths, they fall under a set of BATF guidelines for short barreled rifles and shotguns. Kind of a shame when you stop and wonder how many Game Getters were actually used in the commission of a crime!

This one is not as small and lightweight. But, it is a .410 double hammer by Crescent Firearms Co. It's the closest I'll ever come to owning a .410 double.
Anyone know anything about these?

Sounds like the same as they used to do with the Marbles Gamegetters. We had one that was a .22/44-40/.410 O/U. It had a pistol grip with folding wire stock; I'm sure some on the forum are very familiar with them. I shot .410's out of it as a kid; it was the very first gun I ever shot actually and I bet I could today walk to the very tree I perforated that day. I still have some of the .44-40 GG(gamegetter) round-ball cartridges that we had for it. Seems they'd be an interesting cartridge to a collector. They were obviously made just for the gamegetter.

Neat little guns. I'm becoming a real .410 addict. I've hunted nothing but my .410's this season for quail and the openner in SoDak, I used a M42 .410 for pheasant to great success. The only occasion I've used a larger gauge this year was day 2 and 3 in SoDak when I used a 20g.

Here's one of mine that is a favorite. I've thought of selling it to fund other .410's, but I'm still on the fence.
