The place where he purchased it is one of those 'Yanks who love guns and history with too much money to burn' sites, basically buying up other peoples history coz they can afford it and we cant, these were 'found' undisturbed for well over 100 years in far from perfect storage conditions in the Old Palace of Lagan Silekhana in Katmandu, Nepal:

Take a look at the Ducks Foot Flintlock Pistol from our period but only if you have about 9 grand to spend.

Highly interesting for fellows that ARE self confessed gun nuts.

one thing i love about the yanks is the fact that they will get hold of an old gun, do it up ( usually pretty nicely ) but as soon as its done up they have no worries about firing the things to see how they behave...............splendid.

get a load of the warm wax dipped cartridges he's made as well.
quite an interesting forum that one, i might join it just to see how long it takes them to ban me..?

hmmm, yes, lets not spend a second more of our lives even bothering over such trivial issues mate.
instead let us concentrate on discovering interesting things about the period, a subject at which we are so talented that we should actually be re named the talented knowing everything interesting about the 18th century twins from the land of knowledgable.............think Steves from there as well.......... oh yeah, and looking at gun porn of course.
