This is a firearm the likes of which others do not have in a permit-free cabinet !!!!!!!!!!

Extremely rare piece !!!!!!

This has never been sold on huutokaupat.com !!!!

Probably a rimfire black powder walking-cane firearm, c. 1885.

Can one call it a pistol or a shotgun.....

No purchase permit required, antique weapon; this individual has been checked with the authorities.

It is not a pinfire weapon but most likely a rimfire (see pictures of the mechanism and judge for yourself) — it was a modern high-tech factory-made weapon when produced.

Works with black powder cartridges.

Hits sharply!

Very little fired, perhaps only a few shots long before the First World War !!!

Length approx. 85 cm and calibre approx. 8 mm (so perhaps roughly 32?). Come and measure if an exact calibre matters !!!!

Completely original, intact and functional !!!

Agent weapon, poacher's weapon, self-defence weapon.

The mechanism works nicely; it may be in firing condition but under no circumstances should you plan to fire it.

Retired collector's item, belongs only in your collection for display...

Fully straight, removable, screw-off barrel, no oxidation inside.

Amazingly cleverly made mechanism !!!

Lightweight!

Some markings; country of manufacture probably France, Germany or Belgium.

This should be kept in a locked cabinet/display case etc., out of children's reach.

Worth coming to see and examine from afar; you won't get another chance to buy one like this !!!!

Not cheap but a permit-free rarity and quite a conversation piece.....

Wolf in sheep's clothing.....

Call and ask more if you are interested in this curiosity.....
