RARE REVOLUTIONARY WAR ERA PAIR OF AMERICAN KENTUCKY PISTOLS.

SN NSN. This very simplistic pair of pistols approximates French pistols made circa 1750 with the flat style French hammers. Walnut stocks made without ramrod pipe, thimbles or buttplate. Large thick trigger guard is mounted asymmetrically on bottom of stock each tilting to the right, away from lock. These guns in a military style have bores measuring about 56 Cal. 8″ bbls are half oct to rnd. PROVENANCE: Collection of John Montague. CONDITION: Overall good to very good. Lock screws and escutcheons appear replaced on one gun. Hammer on this gun is quite similar to hammer on gun two though it has a different style jaw screw and is a bit more slender in its contours. Frizzen spring is also slightly different though frizzens and pans appear much the same. Guns overall are gray/brown with old cleaning and pitting overall. Brass trigger guards exhibit a yellow patina with gap and poorer fit near butt as can be seen in photos. Both locks fit guns well. Stocks are both sound with replaced brass pins in one and a 1-1/2″ crack on right side near muzzle of that same gun. Mechanically guns are functional with pitted bores. 4-54357 JS313 (8,000-12,000) – Lot 3373
