Caucasian rifle
I'm a weak man...I couldn't resist...
The screw and upper part of the cock are replacements... By the way I got Rivkin's book, a really threat! A real book, not a catalogue... A lot of kinjal and shashka, not too many guns... Best, Kubur

You are a strong man!
I am a weak one, always looking around my shoulder for... you know who:-(( Wonderful acquisition! Harbuk? Glad you got Kirill's book: it is an indispensable classic. I got several examples of mine there, and am understandably proud of being able to contribute to it. Astvatsaturyan had much more firearms in her book, but it is in Russian ( lucky me!).Apparently, she is about to publish another one but I am afraid it will not be in English. |

Hi Kubur,
Nice rifle you've got there, do you think the upper part of the cock is a working replacement or not? I have attached a photograph of the lock on my Caucasian rifle, which is similar to the one on Corrado's pistol, for a comparison. Regards, Norman. P.S. Corrado that is a nice pistol you have.

Yes, this Persian style lock is the most common you see on these Caucasian guns. Mine is similar. Often, the long guns also copy the Persian style barrels. Rick. |

Corrado your pistol is amazing! It's also the first time that i see snake skin used... very nice. Is it a way to hide your ivory pommel??? But snake is maybe also forbidden by Cites...
