!!!!!Note,
new photos recently added!!!!! This ia a 1/2 scale miniature under
hammer single shot percussion pistol by an unknown maker. 3 5/8" long overall with a 2 3/8" octagon barrel
of .177 caliber. Both sides and the top of the frame are engraved. The barrel with a little engraving on
the top and side flats near the frame. The walnut grips have carving on both sides where they meet the frame and there
is carving at the base of the grip. Really cool action that is cocked by pulling the trigger until it clicks, like a
set trigger, then fired by continuing to pull the trigger, or it can be fired by pulling the trigger through in one motion.
No maker's markings. The barrel is fire blued with 95% original blue. All other metal parts are finished in the
white. I'd call it 98% condition overall.
Price: $750.00

This is a 1/4 scale percussion
French Model 1822 martial pistol by an unknown maker. 2.8" long overall with a 1.6" smoothbore barrel of .13
caliber. The lock assembly, barrel, backstrap, lower tang, and ramrod are steel finished in the white. the triggerguard,
buttcap, nosecap, and sideplate are yellow brass. Functional action and the barrel is drilled through to the nipple.
One piece straight grain walnut stock. Includes a nice hinged top maple casing with push button latch. The interior
French for in red velour with black edging. Also includes an absolutely wonderful 14K gold adjustable powder flash.
There is a recess in the case for what I am sure was the matching 14K gold bullet mold with sprue cutter, but alas, it has
been lost with the years. The mold is a masterpiece of much higher quality in my opinion than the pistol, and I'm am
sure it is by a different maker. There is also a small lidded empty corner compartment in the case. If you have
the mold that fits this case, I'd sure like to buy it! Photo 2, Photo 3, Photo 4, Photo 5, Photo 6, Photo 7, Photo 8, Photo 9, Photo 10, Photo 11, Photo 12 Price: $650.00

The top of the frame under the barrel that is exposed when the barrel is pivoted to open is marked 14K. Two piece mother
of pearl grips. All parts look to be 14K gold except the barrel pivot screw which is steel finished white, the pearl
grips, and I'm assuming the springs. The hammer cocks and releases with a pull of the trigger. Cased in a black
leatherette hinged top case, French fit, with russet suede bottom lining and cream silk lid lining. This is another
one I've never seen before. If anyone has any information on the maker, I'd sure appreciate your letting me know! Photo 2, Photo 3, Photo 4, Photo 5, Photo 6, Photo 7, Photo 8, Photo 9 Price:

scale British Tower flintlock pistol by an unknown maker. 3 3/4" long overall with a 2 1/8" smoothbore barrel
of .19 caliber. The lock is finished in the white and is marked with a crown over GR just ahead of the hammer.
The barrel is browned. Brass furniture. Ebony tipped walnut ramrod. Walnut stock. Fully functional,
the barrel is bored through to the touch hole and the lock has both half and full cock. Extremely well made with
good scale and proportions. Cased in a simulated tortoise shell rounded top cardboard jeweler's casing with hinged
top and push button latch. The interior bottom French fit and lined in a medium brown suede. The interior lid

5 11/16" X 1 7/8" X 7/8" The pistol is in great condition, I'd call it 95%, with just age, and very minor handling
marks. The case does show some wear to the top, sharp edges, and especially to the bottom corners, but is structurally
in good shape and still looks good, just looks old! Photo 2, Photo 3, Photo 4, Photo 5, Photo 6, Photo 7, Photo 8, Photo 9, Photo 10, Photo 11, Photo 12, Photo 13, Photo 14, Photo 15, Photo 16 Price:
