Description of the Product
Flintlock pistols were muzzle-loaded pistols in which the blackpowder charge ignites when the flint strikes a spark from the steel part of the lock. Flintlocks became common during the 17th century and maintained their popularity until about the middle of the 19th century, when they were replaced by the more reliable and easier-to-use percussion caps, which were less prone to being affected by the weather and other circumstances.
Flintlock pistols were used as self-defense weapons and as a military arm. Their effective range was short. In combat these weapons were often used only for a single shot, since the method of reloading was very slow, which is why they were frequently used together with a sword.
This 18th century flintlock pistol has great details from the top of the barrel to the bottom of the stock. The wooden parts are beautifully finished dark hardwood and the metal parts are engraved in ancient gray cast metal.
- This gun is an exact replica of the original. The replica matches the original in size, but may be slightly lighter in weight. The mechanisms of the weapon are working. The weapon can be cocked and dry fired like a real one. Due to the materials used, the mechanisms cannot withstand continuous cocking and firing for long periods.
- Genuine wood and cast metal has been used to make this replica weapon. Zamac differs from steel in many respects, so the structure of the gun does not withstand pressure, it cannot be used to fire bullets, nor can it be converted to a functional weapon by any means.
- Replica guns such as this do not require permits in Finland, nor in many other countries. However, since the gun looks real, it should not be carried in public.
- A replica gun is perfect for historical re-enactment, on a theater stage, in film productions, for collectors of historical memorabilia, and as decoration.
