This pair of pistols almost matches! A fun way to have target shooting "duels." Made by Mendi of Spain. Both are smoothbore. Checkered grips. Both bores are in decent shape, with some patina but no major pitting. Both should be fine shooting a patched .375 or so ball, or loaded with bird shot.

Pistol 1- .39 cal, Case hardened lock. Minor scuffs, little bit of white paint on the butt of the grip. Pinned barrel.

Pistol 2- imported by Hawes, but still made by Mendi. Lockplate appears in the white. About .41 caliber. Wedge key for barrel attachment.
$300 plus shipping CONUS for the pair. Money Order, check, Venmo or PayPal F&F accepted. Please PM if interested. Willing to meet up within 1 hour of Albemarle, NC for delivery

No clue why they haven't sold. Pretty solid deal really.
Haven't seen smoothbore pistols in this style before. That is interesting.
What is the barrel width on them?

If I had the money in my account I would take them just because the price is right.
 
you know, I bet if you took the sale down and cleaned and polished them up and got a few better pics you could get your original asking price. It would only take an afternoon to make all that rust go away, re-blue them and then take some better pictures.
These are not in bad shape at all and most of what I see wrong is cosmetic that will buff out in short order.
