Description:
An interesting rat tail miguelet pistol of about .64 cal, with 12 1/4'' barrel with an oxidized bore. The barrel and Patilla-style lock have mostly toned to a mix of dark gunmetal and gray-brown patina showing scattered old oxidation staining and some smoothed-over light pitting. The breech shows a softened touch mark and the lockplate shows some light foliate embellishments that have softened from the years. The hardwood stock shows the typical distinctive brass sheet cladding with mostly toned to a pleasant ocher patina showing some overall light dents, areas of mild tarnishing and verdigris. The foliate scroll and geometric border embellishments show some softened areas and remain largely intact. The mainspring is rather weak though the lock remains functional. A very good example of these interesting pistols that were popular throughout the Balkan states and lower Russia.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
