SOLD .44 Kentucky flint pistol

[brazosland]

Pending funds.


You won’t see many like this one, it’s exceptional and in outstanding condition. I don’t shoot it, so it needs to move along.

Not cheap, but find another like this one…


$1200 shipped.

More pics…

In the muzzle pic you see stuff on the metal…that’s dust from the cushion it was on.

That is absolutely beautiful. I have one that's very close to it and absolutely love it. I think that's a very fair price for that pistol and is going to make a new owner very happy.

Thanks. I’m a shooter and a hunter, not a museum curator…I have to force myself to remember that sometimes.

I like the tail on that tang.

Committed to memory for a pistol build I'm working on.

Oooooh that's nice!

If he keeps this gun as neat and clean as the toenails on his left foot (see pics), then this is one fine gun.

Seriously though, it is a beautiful pistol.

Pedicures ain’t cheap!

Never had the barrel out of the stock, nor do I intend to remove it. The barrel is as finely crafted as any I have ever examined.

Not home today, but will remove and photograph the lock tomorrow and add the pics here. It sparks like a shooting star.

Pic added of lock. Used the flash to enhance any markings that might be there (handy trick with the iPhone 13Pro). Dont see any. Interesting detail on the end of the **** screw…maybe that’s a clue for someone smarter than me…

Who is the builder and where is he located.

Who is the builder and where is he located.

Builder's name doesn't show up on the Contemporary Longrifles Association artisans list.

The builders name is clearly visible in the pics posted…but since I’m feeling generous, here is another pic for you!

 

[brazosland]

The lock screws (someone help me out…there is an 18th century name for them) appear to be case hardened. Nice feature, and doesn’t surprise me on a gun of this quality.

Pics don’t show it well, but the color is there.

I don't see a rear sight, is this a smoothbore?
