Product Description

Circa 1800's distinctive blunderbuss pistol replica collectible, features: heavily decorative engraved barrel, lock, and pirate's head butt cap. Antique brass finish.

Length: 15", Weight: 1.5 lbs.

“Flintlock” pistols were so called because the lock uses a flint to strike sparks into the priming pan when the trigger is pulled. A small amount of gunpowder in this pan is ignited, which in turn ignites the main gunpowder charge in the barrel, firing the lead ball. Both the main charge and the ball were loaded from the front, or muzzle, of the barrel, after which the priming charge was poured into the pan – all very time consuming! Often the priming charge would burn but fail to ignite the main charge – whence the expression “flash in the pan”! Pirates of the 18th century carried pistols similar to this French flintlock in their raiding exploits. As such skirmishes rarely included time-outs for reloading, a cutlass would accompany the pistol.

Accessories

These replicas are intended for collection, display, and decoration only. Although the lock-actions on the replica firearms are mechanically functional, these items are completely safe and non-fireable.
