Description:
A French Gendame Small pocket Flintlock of the 18th Century. Often these worked their way to the New World and even the American Rev. War' with a ..52 cal, 3 3/8” part octagon part round barrel with cannon muzzle and an oxidized bore. The metal surfaces have mostly toned to gray-brown patina showing scattered oxidation staining and old light to moderate pitting. The walnut stock remains in very good condition showing long ago repaired cracks near the tip, overall darkening from the years and scattered light dings. Stock fit remains quite nice overall, a simple slightly offset ramrod is included and the springs are a little soft but the lock otherwise seems to function normally. Measuring about 7 1/2" overall, very neat , handy sto-away pistol.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
