Right off hand, I would say none of them are re-pro's.

My guess is that all are repros. Reason I guess that is because they all look like well taken care or 200 year old pistols. I’m guessing Mouse is one of those fellas that works at making his collection look to the highest level of authenticity. Keep in mind I ain’t no genius!

They’re not my guns. I help a local ffl with values & ID on black powder guns that they may be purchasing.
(I’m going to check out a Belgian pair of dueling pistols for them Saturday)
This was a collection we evaluated for them last week.
We found one reproduction, the others all appear to be originals in (mostly) awesome condition
I’m curious for those who have already guessed … why did you pick the one you picked?

Second from the top. The wood looks cheesy and the ramrod looks new. JMHO

The one at the very top. Lock is a dead giveaway.

Curious, What do you see about the lock that make you think that?
