flintlock pistol

I’ve scoured the interwebs, bought Torsten Lenk’s book, I even went to the Dresden gun armory museum in Germany in search of clues. I need help identifying where, when, and potentially who made this gun. Barrel is 7” long, gun length is 13” long. All parts appear original as the fit is firm and...

Hello, I am a new member and wanted to say HI to everyone! I also have a question as to getting a lock serviced on a flintlock pistol I refurbished. The main spring is very weak, and possibly the frizzen spring needs replaced. This is from an old kit from the 70's Japan. Track of the Wolf used...

From 1688 to 1694, Francesco Morosini was the Doge (leader) of Venice. He had a special Bible made for him, just in case prayer alone didn't assure his safety. The pistol was fixed to the back cover of the book. It could be fired without opening the book by pulling on a silk bookmark...

At Camp Raven Knob today;. Here's a couple of little clips of Charlie and me shooting my Sparrow Flintlock pistol at a metal target at about fifteen yards. We both nailed that thing. For a .50 smoothbore it did pretty well! Me: and Charlie:

Hello, thanks for letting me join. I am an 81 year old man who was once quite excited about BP weapons. Now nothing excites me but I have become interested in native american style flutes. I am hopeful that this group will get me excited enough to make a flintlock pistol using the lock I...

Traditions 50 caliber flintlock pistol for sale. It works as it should and throws very good sparks. The blueing is good except a little has been lost around touch hole on barrel (this can be seen in close up picture of touch hole). The touch hole liner comes out easy for cleaning.

A friend of mine, Max Egolf stops by the shop to share some of his personal collection with us. This R.W. Wright flintlock pistol was built in 1977 and never fired until Max purchased it in 2016. The pistol features a 54 caliber swamped barrel, but from the looks of the rifling, this was once...

I would like to know the cal of this flintlock so I can get balls for it. The inner end of the barrel is flared so I'm not sure what the inner dia is. The person I bought it from didn't know much about a similar gun at auction was a German horse pistol , pre WW2 made. .790 or 80 cal. This pistol...
