Description:
.54 Caliber 9” round barrel. Not much visibility on stamps or writing left but you can make out "S.NOR" on the lock plate. Nice looking with solid wood and remarkably working mechanical's. In 1816 the Federal Government ordered 20,000 Flintlock Pistols designated the Model of 1816 from SIMEON NORTH, a well known and well Respected Gun Manufacturer in Middletown, Connecticut. Between 1817 and 1820, 19,374 pistols had been delivered to Government Arsenals. At some point after delivery this wonderful piece of our history Flintlock Model 1816 pistol was converted to percussion with a small round bolster set into where the touch hole used to be. Converted pistols such as this saw much use during the American Civil War. A very Fair Price for an Historical Pistol who was present during the Birth of The United States of America.
