Thanks a lot for these informative pictures with pistols of Albania. My flintlock pistol of the Balkan area with a genuine massiv silver stock is probably made in Greece in times when they still had enough money to make such nice things. There are no marks on the Barrel or the lock, but it is in very good condition and the function of the lock is crisp.

Hi Corrado26.
That is a beautiful Greek pistol. With the typical Greek style grip. I note the brass pan and roller on the frizzen spring. This denotes a late period flintlock - and likely European made. I'll bet the internals of the lock are of the same quality as the outside. Again, wonderful looking pistol in great condition. And a textbook example of a Greek style pistol. Thanks for Posting.
