It would be very difficult, may be impossible, to find a finer example of a 180 year old pistol
Quote - B6MQ
As a licensed armourer, in my 50 years of working with thousands of guns, both new and old, I have never seen a 180 year old gun in this condition.
It is like a window in time.
Like stepping back in time and seeing what a gun buyer would have seen when he walked into a gun shop around 1840.
