Nice pistol. Never owned one of the old pocket pistols. I look at them from time to time on GunBroker, but it's not very high on my priority list.
As promised in a previous thread, I'm posting a couple of pic's of my new (to me) 1907 Savage. Serial# 168022. Not in as nice of condition as some I've seen on the forums, but these are hard to come by up here and this one although a little cosmetically challenged, is surprisingly a great shooter. After I got it home, I cleaned/ inspected it and immediately took it out for a test drive. For 99 years old, I'm quite impressed. :)

Like the old advertisememts used to say, like an extension of your pointing finger. Savage pistols are addictive, I have like 9 of them now, including a rather hard to find 1915 .380 which is in nice shape.
Just picked up a 1907 .32 caliber serial 935XX, shipped November 20, 1913. I squirreled it away for a few days until I can get a better look at it, just too good a deal to walk away from. Still learning about these
Great little pistols, I have a warning though they are similar to Lay's Potato Chips, bet you can't do with just one . I have 9, 1907, 1915 & 1917 models. I like the 1907 the best. Now you need to order Bailey Brower's Savage Pistols book. The price of this book has doubled-tripled lately. There are some used ones here for 23.00. A very well written and illustrated book, I highly recommend it!

You thought I was kidding, I have one other early M1907 .32 made in 1909 not shown.
It's a Savage Model 1907 mgf in 1913, so 102 years old.
