Not often found for sale in this part of the world, but this one, a "sleeper" I believe, appeared in a local auction recently, and now has joined my collection.
Overall 59" (1.5m) with approx. .50 smoothbore barrel of 47" (1.2m). The great thing about this one is that apart from some of the Mother of Pearl inlays missing (now replaced), nothing else is missing. While we are on this subject, I note that in Elgood's book Arms of Greece, he refers to this style as ARNAUTKA rather than Tanchika. Can someone please clarify.
