Description:
LARGE Bore LONDON Marked MORTIMER Flintlock Pistol
With Initialed Plaque in the Stock
Here we present an antique Flintlock Pistol, made by Mortimer of London, circa the late 1700s. It was almost certainly made by Harvey Walklate Mortimer of 89 Fleet Street in London. This massively bored pistol would have been intended for use as a self-defense firearm. It is short, therefore handy and concealable in a coat if necessary, also being at home worn in a belt. Though a single shot pistol, it would have been a formidable gaping hole to look into if one found themselves at the wrong end.
The lock is marked “MORTIMER”. The top of the octagonal barrel is marked “LONDON”. The bottom of the barrel bears British proof marks and “TWIST”. The silver initial placard on the top of the stock is inscribed “WJT”.
The overall condition is good. The metal surfaces are dark with age. The markings are clear. The wood stock is solid, with checkering worn smooth with use. There are a few spots where very neat grafts have been done. The bore is dark and untouched. The action is functional.
