Project Description
!!!!!SOLD!!!!! This is a mid 19th century British East India Company percussion single shot pistol by an unknown maker, and quite possibly antique. 3 3/4″ long overall with a 2 3/16″ smoothbore barrel of about .162 caliber. This piece looks to be quite old, and may possibly be antique. Steel barrel, lock assembly, bridal, ramrod, trigger, wedge, lanyard ring, and screws, finished in a dark gray/brown patina. Yellow brass nosecap, triggerguard, and buttcap. One piece walnut stock. The rear of the lockplate marked with a small crown. The bottom of the buttcap stamped “33”. Nice condition, the muzzle ramrod thimble has been partially crushed, but would be easily straightened. The stock showing an old repair on the right side from the barrel to the rear of the lockplate. A really great piece at a very attractive price! !!!!!SOLD!!!!!
