TINY Vest-Pocket ENGRAVED Antique .22 PEPPERBOX Fine Mariette Brevette from 1850s Belgium
Description: TINY Vest-Pocket ENGRAVED Antique .22 PEPPERBOX Fine Mariette Brevette from 1850s Belgium Here we present an antique Belgian Mariette Brevette Ring Trigger/Under Hammer Percussion Pepperbox. This firearm was made in the 1850s in Liege, Belgium, known for centuries now as one of the foremost firearms capitals of the world. It was expressly made for self-defense, giving the shooter 4 shots of .22 caliber ball without having to cock a hammer. This pistol is double action, with a cluster of 4 barrels that revolves with each pull of the trigger. This is a percussion piece, and each of the 4 barrels is keyed and can be independently unscrewed for loading. In fact, each of the barrels is numbered and corresponds to the same number on the firearm, so that the user could not lose track of which barrel goes to its particular portion of the breech. The loading of the gun from the breech, rather than from the muzzle, was beneficial to loading a larger ball—yielding a better gas seal—as opposed to trying to load from the muzzle. The grip frame is marked “Mariette Brevete”. The barrels and breeches are numbered 1-4 in sequence. This gun is numbered “1017” on the top of the frame. The breech of the barrel cluster is Liege proofed with a “Crown/AF”, for Auguste Francotte. The overall condition is fine. The iron parts retain their bright white finish. The markings are clear, along with the engravings. The grips are in fine shape. The bores are smooth and dark. The action is excellent. Here is a rare, vest pocket-sized .22 caliber percussion pepperbox from 19th Century Belgium! Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 1-3/8 inches. Caliber: .22 Percussion Overall condition as seen in photos. Very Fast. Very Safe. FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE. Delivered directly to your door by express mail! Guaranteed AUTHENTIC & Includes CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY. ancestryguns $1600 #190335 SOLD Antique: Yes |
