Description for Item # 332829822

French tip-down target pistol, circa 1860 - 1880,
caliber .22 short,
heavy 8" octagonal barrel with dovetail front sight and 2 notched blade-rear sights.
Under barrel is a stamp, which unfortunately I can't identify.
No proof stamps - therefore not Belgian or British.
The barrel shows more than 90% original bright blue,
the receiver kept in the white and nicely engraved,
typical 1860's French channeled and varnished grips like those on dueling pistols.
The trigger outside the guard is to tip down the barrel for loading.
The rare pistol is in excellent condition and in good working order.
Like all my lots never a reserve!
Please ask and do your homework before bidding.
Federal law: firearms made before 1899 are antique
meaning inside the U.S.A. no FFL required.
If you like to use Paypal, please contact me.
For buyers who prefer to pay in Euro I have since 1955 an account with the same bank in Dortmund.
