Commodore Swab Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 I recently "acquired" an original pistol that I am going to be reproducing, I haven't been able to date it more than french 18th century. I added the dollar for a size comparison, weight is under 10 ounces. Furniture will be cast in silver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jendobyns Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 A gun this size could be smuggled into gaol inside a loaf of bread Or easily hidden inside a lady's pocket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michaelsbagley Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Nice... looks like it also may be a turn off barrel. Is it? Will you be reproducing it as such if it is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commodore Swab Posted August 2, 2012 Author Share Posted August 2, 2012 Yes it is a turn off barrel, rifled as well. To keep cost down I am not planning on doing either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
On Stranger Tides Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 Is it at all possible that this is the one i saw because it was rifled and all too, eerily similar.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoD Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 You can put me down for one once you are making them as long as you can do a version without the vent hole drilled as it'd not get into the UK then. ...and then I discovered the wine...

Commodore Swab Posted August 10, 2012 Author Share Posted August 10, 2012 Not drilling the vent is not a problem, in fact I would rather sell them that way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commodore Swab Posted August 11, 2012 Author Share Posted August 11, 2012 An estimation is 6-8 months before the first ones come off which are already spoken for. For someone wishing to purchase one these are not going to be like the India guns where you can just pick up a phone and pay for one and have it shipped. I simply can't afford to make up a couple dozen and have them sitting on a shelf hoping somebody will show up with cash and pay for one. When I do a "batch" deposits are needed or to have some prior deal worked out. I will work of trades or payments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
