17th Century Pirate Flintlock Pistol
Description: With about .60 cal, 11 1/2” barrel with an oxidized bore. The barrel and lockplate of this likely Spanish or Italian bannana early shape of the 17th or early 18th century, and the pistol are mostly a mild gray-brown and gunmetal gray patina showing scattered light oxidation and pinprick pitting. There are some rudimentary foliate embellishments with touchmarks on the barrel. The convex lockplate featured a grooved bridled frizzen and chiseled frizzen spring, the hammer screw head broken off and the center of the plate with some fine letter-like engraving. The original muzzle band has been lost to the years and replaced with a thin band of decorative sheet brass that remains bright, the remaining hardware a deeper antique brass patina. The foliate triggerguard finial has been lost to the years and the sideplate shows some foliate embellishments. The European walnut stock features silver inlay along the grips, much of it has been lost to the years, and a decorative pewter plate atop the wrist. The stock rates about good showing scattered thin cracks and light chips, dings and scuffs, the stock now a little shy of the lockplate. The ramrod is present and the lockplate has a stiff hammer but worlks and showers sparks. When buying a gun always have it examined by a competent gunsmith before shooting.
