Description:
ENGRAVED Antique Richardson of LONDON Belt Pistol
Stately Gentleman’s Belt Pistol circa 1840
Here we present an antique Percussion Belt Pistol, made by Richardson of London, England, circa 1840. Belt-sized pistols like these were used to defend oneself when traveling or in public places. It was big enough to fight with, but not so large as to be cumbersome. They could be both as handsome or as plain as one desired or could afford.
This specimen is handsomely decorated with engraving on the hammer, frame and trigger guard. The barrel is 6-1/2 inches and octagonal, with a .47 caliber bore. The rifling is quite deep and distinct. The ramrod is captive on a swivel, so that it will not be lost during travel or the heat of battle. The grips are beautifully grained and feature a cap trap located in the pommel and a small silver shield-shaped placard for initials. British proofs are located on the left side of the gun.
The overall condition is fine. The engraving is sharp and clean. The stock is in very fine condition. The bore is in very good condition and the action is excellent.
Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction.
Barrel is 6-1/2 inches in length.
