This Kentucky pistol is stocked in walnut and trimmed in brass furniture. The bright lock and octagon-to-round barrel show a small amount of patina from use. This pistol would make a fine addition to a 18th century persona. A tapered 10" octagon-to-round .62 caliber smoothbore, with a .615" diameter bore serves as the heart of the pistol. Only a silver blade front sight is fitted, which is traditional on a belt or holster pistol of this style. The Mold & Gun Shop classic European lock is bright, but does have some areas of cast texture that were not completely finished out. Use our 3/4" gun flints for best performance in this lock. The barrel has a slotted vent liner well positioned on the pan.

Slender from the buttcap up the grip, the grip flares out at the lock panels. The short straight tang breech plug tang is framed with a panel of bold raised carving. A tang bolt engages the triggerplate below. A single wedge key with oval escutcheon plates secures the front of the barrel. The bottom view of the pistol reveals a majority of the brass furniture on the gun. The grip buttcap, triggerguard and rod pipe have all been finished in the same manner, with an ever so slight burnished patina. All the furniture appears to be bedded with a dark brown epoxy. The ramrod pipes are epoxied directly to the stock with no pins. The ramrod has a brass jagged tip with 8-32 threads for loading and cleaning accessories. The brass sideplate of the gun is retained by two lock bolts that pass through the stock to engage the lock on the opposite side of the gun.

This gun will add that little extra something to your 18th century persona. Order it for a ten day visual inspection. You will be delighted.
