Hi Folks,
While I may be able to tell my smallswords from spadroons, pistols I admit are not a strong point. I am presently restoring the entire armoury of Kelly Castle, near Arbroath, which includes one display board of various pistols - ![]() Now that is them before restorative work, which I have started today. I had said that I could provide identification tags below each weapon on the board, and I find myself requiring some expert help, which I hope is where you guys come in! ![]() ![]() Of these three above, the top and bottom are of the same type. They both have markings on the opposite sides of the barrels. I did note these down, but forgot to bring them home! They were for sure stamped `MADE IN SPAIN` and CAL .41 along with some other numbers. Here are some closer pics of the other pistols and powder flask/horn - ![]() ![]() ![]() Any help with identification of the pistols type/period/country of origin would be of great help and very much appreciated! Many thanks in advance, Macdonald |
