Indo-Arab Matchlock No2
Hi,
Second of the two matchlocks I got recently. Different stock and barrel profile. Again low grade silver bands with vestiges of silver inlay in the barrel at the back. There is an extra match holder in front of the pan on this one, any particular reason for this? Foresight missing unfortunately. As usual all info and comments please. Regards, Norman. P.S. There is a number or date on the front band a translation would be great. Last edited by Norman McCormick; 17th April 2011 at 03:49 PM. |
