I've finished the silver kentucky pistols

[Glenfilthie]

Sorry to keep bugging you Rolf...but why do they have opposite locks? One is on the left and one is on the right?

These are dueling pistols and the guy he challenged is left handed. :rotf:
All kidding aside. That's a real nice job on those pistols. About as fancy as you can get on Kentucky's. Ezcellent job on the gold bands and stars.

What can I add? Simply fantastic.

:grin: I'm left handed. With a rigth handed pair I'd be handicaped.

No, seriosly,I got the idea from the J.P. Beck pistols which are a rigth and left hand pair. I hope to find a jeweler that can ingrave a mirror image of my signature on the left hand pistol, like it was done on the Beck pistols.

Best regards
Rolf

This is my second attempt at gun building.

was your first attempt working for Holland and Holland?

Vary nice job. Next you need to learn engraving.
You did a very good job on the gold bands and the silver work. I have no doubt that you would be a very good engraver.
Rolf.
If these pistols were nicely engraved I think they would sell for about $25,000 with the case and accessories. as is for probably about $4000 to $5000.
