PAIR OF BELGIAN FLINTLOCK BOXLOCK PISTOLS WITH SPRING-LOADED BAYONETS.

PAIR OF BELGIAN FLINTLOCK BOXLOCK PISTOLS WITH SPRING-LOADED BAYONETS. SN NSN. Cal. .525 Bore diameter. 4-1/2″ Octagon bbls have studs on bottoms holding 4″ triangular bayonets which are retained by sliding trigger guards, which when released spring and lock into position with thumb detents on left sides. Pistols are not maker marked, but are engraved on each side of boxlocks with open scroll with pineapple finials. Belgian proof marks are on left sides. Sliding safeties are mounted on tops. Checkered European walnut birds-head grips have inlaid silver shield escutcheons at tops (of grips). CONDITION: Good. Metal parts cleaned long ago, and are now mostly pewter gray to brown. Grips show considerable wear, and some repairs. One bayonet is not retained by trigger guard, as it appears it cannot slide far enough forward to engage tip (probably needs cleaning). Otherwise guns are complete, working, with good springs and locking detents for bayonets. 4-47376 MGM63 (2,000-3,000)
