This is a weapon of a kind others don’t have sitting unlicensed in a cabinet!!!!!!!!!

Extremely rare piece!!!!!!

Nothing like this has ever been sold on huutokauppa.com!!!!

Probably a rimfire black-powder walking-cane gun from around c. 1885.

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

No purchase permit required — antique weapon; this piece has been checked by the authorities.

Not a pinfire weapon but probably a modern rimfire (see photos of the mechanism and judge for yourself)

Packs a punch!

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

Length approx. 85 cm and calibre approx. 8 mm, so perhaps 32? Come and measure if an exact calibre is important!!!!

Completely original, intact and functional!!!

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

The mechanism works well; it may be in firing condition but under no circumstances should you

plan to shoot it — it’s a retired/deactivated piece, for display in your collection only...

Completely straight, removable screw-in barrel, no corrosion inside.

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

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

Worth coming from afar to view and inspect!!
