Description:
An unmarked nicely made percussion handgun believed to be of German origin .The wood and metal are both in excellent condition. The 5 1/8" barrel shows a Damascus pattern and is 1/2 octagon and 1/2 ribbed. All metal has a pleasing patina. The wood retains most of its original finish. There is an unusual safety arrangement over the percussion cap ( see the picture).  This may indicate that this pistol was very neatly converted from a flintlock to a percussion fireing system. The overall length is 10 & 1/4 ". The action is strong., althoug h the hammer at times does slip from full cock to 1/2 cock position. It still falls with enough force to fire the weapon.  Antique- no FFL required.  A handsome, well made pistol.  Looks like the original ramrod.

A no interest payment plan is available.
