A scarce pistol to find,  this Prussion 1848 dated percussion pistol with a captured ram-rod has the European nipple protector and a 4" heavy round barrel of .72 cal.. These were imported by both sides during the Civil War. Overall length is about 12", and the lock-plate has a CROWN and underneath it to the left is AL, and the back of the lock is dated 1848, and 308 stamped under that number. The barrel has patches of mild pitting, and the lock works well.

Brass side plate, butt-cap, and triggerguard. When buying a gun always have it examined by a competent gunsmith  before  shooting. To buy a gun from me you must get a direct email for me, with details, and shipping cost.   We don’t have a web  site .I prefer money orders or a check.  Item ships when funds come in. I try to keep guns  affordable, which means I make less money than most dealers. You won’t get altitude sickness, or nose bleed, with my prices! I consistently have the best selection of  older guns If you attempt to buy,  you must still contact us for details . Best to email to buy. Sometimes a local person can stop buy and purchase before the gun is removed.  Sometimes not home to get calls. Some guns are required shipment to a gun dealer near you for a transfer to you when it arrives. Otherwise many older or black powder guns ship to your door. With the widest selection of older guns at great prices, We don’t have a store, and sell on the internet only.  I’m easy to get along with. Thank You
