Geen aanbiedingen geplaatst
Omschrijving
For sale is a very unique, one of a kind percussion pistol. Currently unsure of the exact type of pistol this is. A few colelctors have suggested this to be a howdah, a few others think this is a modified coach gun. It is possibly a howdah pistol; used to defend against tigers while on the elephant howdah. That said, the it does look like the Howdah guns produced by J Purdey, but has a slightly longer barrel than expected. It could be a modified coach weapon.
The gun is in great shape. It has a beautiful damascus striped double barrel, and floral pattern on plating, top of mechanism and hammers. It comes with a matching ramrod with corksrew. Some wear on stock, but overall gun looks great, including some very nice patina. Pistol handle and stock are conjoined pieces.
Only serious offers will be considered. Trades for antique flintlocks also considered.
As per marktplaats rule, this antique is pre-1870 and no bids accepted for people below 18.
Pick up available in Delft. Option of being shipped too.
