Please note that this is an automatic translation. In case of any discrepancies between the original and this translated version, the original version shall prevail.

From the collection: fine cap‑lock pistol, circa 1850.

Classic model!

Original, no purchase permit required.

Muzzle‑loading.

Length nearly 30 cm and calibre approximately 13–14 mm.

Damascened, superbly striped barrel!

The original lock plate is missing; a temporary plate without a mechanism has been fitted in its place.

The striker is original and moves when operated by hand.

Except for the lock plate, the firearm is an original 19th‑century piece, about 170 years old!

Beautiful engravings!

Marks may be found if the barrel is disassembled; likely a French or Belgian gun.

It is not currently in firing condition but could be made so by fitting an old lock with its mechanism.

An excellent project for someone, or as‑is for a collection.
