^Lot 1154 Modern Made Single Shot Percussion Pistol

Modern Made Single Shot Percussion Pistol, #098424, approx. .48 cal., 6.75'' octagonal barrel with low brass blade front sight and large V-notch rear is marked ''Blackpowder Only'' and perhaps ''Chuukar'' (indistinct), along with the serial number on left angled flat. Steel lockplate is floral engraved but otherwise unmarked, hammer with distinct curved profile and high spur, brass sideplate and triggerguard, trigger with early-style hook at bottom, steel tulip-head ramrod, with one-piece hardwood stock. Condition is very good to excellent, the barrel retaining most of its original brown finish and the brass an aged patina. Stock shows rather crude workmanship and could use finishing. Action is crisp; bore is clean with deep rifling. Est.: $150-$250. (No FFL Required)
