Glasgow Jon Posted June 30, 2009 Posted June 30, 2009 As promised, last week, here are some better pictures for your perusal and enjoyment. Sorry that they are a day late but I was having serious issues with photobucket. Anyhow, I hope that you enjoy them and can maybe use them for reference purposes. The rest of the pictures are at: More Muskets and Pistols. I hope that you all enjoy them. Glasgow Jon Better to be a dead Pirate than to live in mediocraty!!
Silkie McDonough Posted June 30, 2009 Posted June 30, 2009 Wonderful! Thanks. Wish I could some of the detail etching on the Murdocks. Aah, this just gives me more reason to do more research.
Glasgow Jon Posted June 30, 2009 Author Posted June 30, 2009 Glad that you enjoyed them. Hope that they prove as inspirational to others as they are to you and I. Glasgow Jon Better to be a dead Pirate than to live in mediocraty!!
CaptainSatan Posted June 30, 2009 Posted June 30, 2009 Thank you for taking the time to post pictures of such wonderful toys. I enjoyed them very much. NOTE: If you use a filter called a Polarizer on your camera you can eliminate reflections on glass. Assuming that you are using available or continuous light (instead of a flash). As we say in Ireland let's drink until the alcohol in our system destroys our liver and kills us.
Aerynfyre Posted June 30, 2009 Posted June 30, 2009 Beautiful designs....wonderful craftsmanship.....especially the Indian pistols & muskets....gorgeous inlay....Thanks ever so much for sharing Darling.....I seriously wants me one (actually I wants me all of them....) Aerynfyre
callenish gunner Posted July 1, 2009 Posted July 1, 2009 (edited) Been at least 15-18 years since I have had the chance to see those guns in Glasgow. Used to be an old gent named Barkley who took care of the weapons there, fine gent let me see many in the restoration rooms This shot might help you Silkie ...another Scottish pistol in the collection Edited July 1, 2009 by callenish gunner

Glad that you enjoyed them. Sorry about the lighting but I only have a 1.2 megapixel cameraphone at my disposal at the moment. Should I acquire a new camera in the future, then these will be the first photos that I re-shoot. Glasgow Jon Better to be a dead Pirate than to live in mediocraty!!
