Walnut half stock with checkered grip. Barrel 11" long 45 caliber, 12 groove rifling 1:18 twist. Single set-Double phase trigger. Color casehardened lock, trigger guard, nosecap and entry thimble. I removed the lock and polished the surfaces of the mating moving parts. Spring pressure was reduced to proper levels for competition shooting.
I purchased these pistols new about a year ago. My plan was to expand my shooting at Friendship from my open class pistols to also include the traditional classes of competition. Unfortunately, I developed a severe case of tennis elbow. I went through therapy and continue to do so and it is better now but I am still unable to hold up a pistol for more than a few seconds. On top of that,
I have developed a tremor. My days of offhand pistol shooting are over. The joys of being in my late 70's, something tells me there is more to come.
This percussion pistol has never been fired since it left the factory. The price is $550 delivered UPS in the lower 48.
