Default Some Queen-Anne pistols

I dare to show here some fotos of some English Queen-Anne-pistols that have been part of a wonderful Exhibition "Very British" in the Army Museum of Rastatt Castle in Germany during the year 2015. In case there should be an interest to see more but mediocre pictures of this Exhibition with lots of British flintlock and percussion pistols I am prepared to show them here.

Hello

An interesting aspect is the threaded body, in the box-lock models with two, three, four and more barrel is impossible (except for modern methods) while tapping the stumps, and then resorted to a threaded sleeve which is He forced on an ad-hoc perforqacion.

Interesting also is a tool to screw-unscrew the barrel, open, which is in the last part.

Sorry for the translator.

Very nice to see, Corrado.
Thank you for showing them.
The Queen Anne style is on of my favourites, and I see some very good makers in the photos!
These are all beautiful work.
Thank you again.

Richard.

The Queen-Annes above are from my collection. A part of it is shown in the following fotos, that are by far not as good as the fotos above. I hope you are able to recognize some details...........
