Antique European made Saloon Pistol with octagonal Damascus Steel barrel with inlaid Brass front sight

All the steel work of the lock, hammer, trigger guard, ramrod holder, & barrel pin cartouche were skillfully engraved but have been heavily cleaned-up to remove old rust

The hammer works on both 1/2 Cock & Full Cock and the spring is still quite strong PERFECT WORKING ORDER

This was probably an expensive weapon when it was originally retailed

Dates CIRCA 1850

The condition leaves a fair bit to be desired but could be a great restoration project for someone with talented hands and some spare time :-)

SUPERB wall-hanger decorative item for your Man cave that may be left on permanent display (IE does not require being secured-away in a firearms safe)

As an ANTIQUE muzzle-loading black-powder pistol ?, NO GUN LICENCE is required to purchase or to own.

However the weapon must remain in owner's home and is certainly not to be carried outside without at least an "A" category gun licence
