I guess you did not get it, Bruno; maybe my wrong transmission. Rikkn had originally asked for a money evaluation in his first post (which is not allowed, if you read the forum rules), reason why i edited it with the note i was now quoting.
In answering to your second paragraph, i will do it by PM.

Fernando is correct Bruno, I did ask for opinions on how much I should pay for them.

That is a very nice cased pair of pistols, in apparently superb condition by an excellent maker(from Regensburg). The single stock is correct and the lack of any visible empty slots suggests that the set is complete with all its accoutrements, which is often not the case. I hope you manage to acquire them.

OK,,,, I got them. Not sure if a good deal or not, but I am happy !! Just finished playing with them, wiped them down lightly as they were coated with vasoline ! I will have to do a much better cleaning someday. The detail on them is spectacular, as is the wood. They also have adjustable triggers and do not appear ever to have been fired. One of the tools I cannot figure out - looks like some kind of puller (?). Any idea what the opaque material is that was used on the flask ? Here are more pictures.

I’m certainly no expert but I’d say the opaque material on the powder flask is horn.

Oh, silly me

I misinterpreted Rikkn's question on this one.

As both pistols have a set trigger and because of the separate butt these are certainly no duelling pistols but are made for the shooting range.
