My Christmas self gift

Hi Corrado, just seen your pictures of 2 of your Q.Anne pistols, both of them very nice and highly desirable. I am inspired to try to match you with pictures of my 2 Q.Anne pistols, especially as one is by the same John Harman, tho' not in such good condition. The second, a pair, is by William Paris of Warwick with a crest on the escutcheon showing that it was owned by Wm.Beckford, Lord Mayor of London in the 1740s. I hope you like them.

Apologies - the attached pictures have appeared in the wrong order.
1 and 6 are the Wm. Paris pair, the others are the Harman pistol.

Thanks a lot for showing your Queen-Anne pistols. It is very intersting to see the same sideplate as with my example of John HARMAN. Is there any LONDON adress on your pistol? In case you'd like to see more of my Queen-Annes please look at

Thanks for reminding me of your collection, Corrado. It's truly splendid and makes me quite envious! My Harman is just signed JOHN HARMAN on the top of the breech section of the barrel and LONDON on the bottom of the breech section, next to the proof marks.
