Antique miniature wheellock pistol

wheellock95 · 2nd August 2021, 01:06 PM

I have noticed that on a number of true antique miniature wheellock pistols that they have 2 or sometimes 3 loops for chains to be attached to be worn as a kind of jewellery. I have a miniature wheellock that has one loop however on the stock behind the barrel there is an old repair which seems to be the right size and is in line with the remaining loop. Could this be where a second chain loop used to be present ? Would like to hear your thoughts
Thanks
