Original Austro-Hungarian Model 1859 Lorenz Percussion Cavalry Pistol, made in 1864 in Vienna, Austria. This pistol was meant to be used from a horse by hussars, dragoons or cavalry.
This pistol is marked with the Austrian double headed eagle at the rear of the lock and “864” meaning that is was made in 1864. The top of the barrel is marked with the maker’s name “L. WURZINGER”. The left side of the stock is also marked “WURZINGER/WIEN (VIENNA)”. Proof and acceptance marks are located on the left side of the barrel.
The overall condition is near fine. The metal surfaces have a smooth patina. The markings are clear and legible. The bore is in great shape with sharp rifling. The stock shows some normal handling and remains in nice condition.
Asking $1300 + 20 for shipping. PM me for more pictures or possible trades. Looking for original Civil War muskets mostly but I will look at what you have.
