A great addition to my collection

[Bayer1957]

Thanks to a very good friend, I was able to add the two to my collection.

Gunsmith: Franz Xaver Wisthaler from 1801 to 1845 in Munich. Master Gunsmith in the Royal Guard Regiment.

The Pistols are practically new
480 Caliber.

I`m going to have to buy a second closet. But how do I explain that to my Wife

Just wow!!

I was able to persuade my Wife to buy a second display case. It wasn`t that expensive at all
But filling it up probably won`t be cheap

If Envy is a sin.
I have sinned
The pistols are beautiful and I particularly like the elegance of the hammers and the way the lines of the hammer flow into the barrel.

Those are amazing! Did you have the gun cases made or did you purchase them together?

Yours are in much better shape. Mine are from the same time period, circa 1840 and made in Augsberg, Germany by Johannes Mond, with cannon type ends on the barrels. They are also numbered 1 & 2, circa 1840. 1 has more wear and tear, so probably it was the daily carry gun. Similar architecture... Also a matching SXS Shotgun in damascus.
