Lets see some flintlock pistols!

How about a little tap action pistol!

Rickstl , when does your gun museum open?

I made this from a MBS kit earlier this year.

The Queen Ann and the French pistols are from TRS kits.

What is TRS? I’m interested in those style pistols.

I've posted this before, but my avatar is my J. Probin (Maker to His R.H. the Prince of Wales) 20 bore officer's dueller, ca. 1785. I shoot it, and it is pictured on a target shot with it at 12 yards, in duelling cadence (shot fired within 3 seconds, from the lowered position).

Yes, that's correct. Both from The Rifle Shoppe kits.

I’m going to camp out in their yard until they fill my order. Maybe they will feed me.

They were very nice to me. I got the parts I needed, and a nice tour. I arrived too late for lunch, left before supper.

Before I traveled there I had called and left a couple messages, and it was a few days before Jane replied. But when she did she was very cordial, and very nice in person.

Like I said in my thread, she never left the phones for the 3 hours i was there... they stay busy as far as I can tell.

An Algerian Flintlock Pistol...View attachment 31975View attachment 31976

does it have a water proof pan?

I built this little guy for a customer. I used my castings for the lock and all the furniture except for the ramrod pipe. That's a silver dollar for size comparison.

Remember this one?

Tower boarding pistol. I think it's a Japanese kit gun. I picked it up at a gun show maybe 25 years ago.

I remember these from the early '60's.

Here's another one - one of my regular shooters. I don't know who made it, or when, but it is nicely done. The lock is Spanish (modern), but has been worked-over, and the frizzen has been properly hardened and tempered, so it is very reliable. It's a .45, and rifled: quite accurate. The wire inlays to the stock are a nice touch. It has a name on the top barrel flat, but I have not been able to identify it with the maker or owner.

I made this from a kit a few years back, it's a .50 cal. smooth bore of a J P Beck pistol from York County Pistols.

Hi Toot

Yes, it's one variation I've seen on a handful of pistols in the past. Looks like it would be effective.

They are actually unfired and probably will remain that way unless I'm challenged to a duel.
