Description:
Antique ST. ETIENNE M1822 T-Bis Flintlock FRENCH Military CAVALRY Pistol  

COLONIAL FRANCE Era 1820s MILITARY PROOFED Handgun

Here we present an antique French Military Model 1822 T-Bis Cavalry Pistol, made circa the 1820s at State Arsenal St. Etienne, France. The arsenal produced arms such as swords from medieval times to 1764 and became a primary French firearms production facility. It produced arms all the way through the World Wars and finally closed in 2001. It was used by cavalry and marines alike. This pistol is very likely to have seen action in any of France’s many colonies during this period. Other significant conflicts include the Second French Intervention in Mexico as well as the Franco-Prussian War. The pistol is of robust construction with lots of brass for support. The bore is a substantial .72 caliber.
The overall condition is good. Strong action. The bore is in good shape for its age. This example has been reconverted. The cracks and splits are stable. Markings are legible. Light gray patina. “449” marked on the left flat. The ramrod is absent.

Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction.
