I think either by the check or maybe holding a foot from face.This gun uses solid bullets not shot. shot weapons such as shotguns or blunderbusses are the only weapons I know of that are fired from hip. You would need to sight down the barrel to aim.

Fernando I do not understand Unreal. This is not a unique piece. There are more of this type in the market scarce but out there

Hi Ward
What you think wasn't my intent, by no means
I know it is an authentic piece, if that is what you are referring.
It was a figure of speech. How to say in other words ?
It is so crude, so gentilic, so unortodox, so not industrial like, so wild, so ethnographic, so naíve looking, that it looks unreal ... not untrue.
I hope this eliminates any doubt.

No offense taken just did not know what you meant. I did not think you meant anything negative. All I was trying to convey was this not a isolated lock made by a inventive native craftsman.
