This continental pistol features a mixture of French and Dutch influence. Stocked in walnut, the pistol features an 8" .45cal rifled barrel, Queen Anne pistol lock, and custom made brass furniture. The barrel and brass are profusely engraved in a late 18th century continental style. The entire piece was built as new, then moderately aged for a warm and mellow appearance.
The new owner writes, "Like looking at a well executed landscape painting, I continue to see more and more detail. The engraving on the barrel and brass furniture is just enough without being overly done. The carving and inletting is crisp and the way the grip flares down towards the butt cap offers a very comfortable grip."
