Item Details
Description
POCKET PISTOL BY G. HUNTER & CO. EDINBURGH. Cal. 36. NSN. These popular pistols were intended to provide two relatively rapid shots by tapping lever on a rotary pan. (For practical purposes it took more than just a tap.) For the second shot this pistol only needed to be re-cocked and frizzen set back in place. Some were muzzleloaders. This scarce all brass pistol has screw barrels. Left side of boxlock action is engraved "G. HUNTER &" "CO." on oval surrounded by flags. Left side is similar and is engraved "EDINBURGH". Frizzen, rotary pan, reinforced cock, trigger guard and trigger are steel. Bag grip is brass. CONDITION: fair to good. Brass shows considerable cleaning over the years and is presently a bright mustard color. Steel parts show considerable cleaning. Part of frizzen spring is broken, otherwise mechanically good. Original sliding top safety replaced with a piece of bronze, quality of work is good. (01-21944/MGM). ANTIQUE. $1,000-2,000.
