He went to London in the early 1770s where he set up the business that would be carried on by his sons and their sons long after his death. Durs Egg was considered a trendsetter for fine arms in his day and his works are highly desirable today. This piece by Egg would have been a very good sidearm for self-defense in early-19th Century London. It features a double action only type of mechanism and utilizes the percussion firing system.
