Impressive French Military Model 1816 Flintlock Pistol
c. 1816, “Model 1816” French Military Flintlock Pistol, Very Fine.
This is an antique French Military Model Year 1816 Flintlock Service Pistol. It measures 14.5” in overall length, with a 7.75” long, .69 caliber barrel. This Pistol is unmarked, with brass regulation furniture. Note: This pistol may be another country's copy of the French Model 1816. It is rather crude in comparison to the French Arsenal issued examples. The stock was broken at the wrist and repaired during the period of use, having expected light scratches and dings from years of actual service. This is an impressive Pistol in good working mechanical order.
