FRENCH Large Caliber Brass Barrel FLINTLOCK Pistol
Early 1800s .72 Caliber Flintlock “Manstopper”
Here we present an antique French Style Large Caliber Brass Barrel Flintlock Pistol, made circa the early 1800s in turn of the century France. In the era that this pistol was made, France and most of Europe was in turmoil. In 1789, the French Revolution began, and chaos ensued for the next 10 years, characterized by insurrections, mob violence, execution and assassination. King Louis XVI was executed in 1793. Simultaneously, France was at war with much of Europe. Eventually, Napoleon Bonaparte rose out of the ranks through coup and became emperor. This hefty pistol was made for self-defense, having plenty of firepower to stop any intruder or ne’er do well. The barrel is made entirely of brass. The stock is nicely checkered with a brass trigger guard and pommel with nice engravings throughout.
The overall condition is Good. The action is functional. Left side plate absent. The bore is smooth and dark with age. This pistol is solid and has stood the test of time. Imagine staring down this gaping bore!
