Dealer of Antique Hand Guns, Including Antique Pistols, Revolvers, Derringers, and Dueling Pistols

3130 - REVOLUTIONARY WAR PISTOL, SILVER-MOUNTED OFFICERS PISTOL BY BRANDER.
We sold this gun a little over 1 year ago and it has returned via an upgrade/trade. This is a wonderful gun made by Brander and hallmarked in the 1760's. It was found in a fine, large home in New Jersey in a small flat trunk under shredded and treated newspaper insulation between the rafters in the attic about 30 years ago, prior to the homes razing. I purchased it from the new owner of the property that was tearing it down. It most certainly saw service during the Revolutionary War. This is a Queen Anne sized pistol with prox. 9" barrel and silver military mounts. It is in fine condition and IT IS NICE !

2096 - CIVIL WAR ERA, LOUIS D. NIMSCHKE ENGRAVED NUMBER 2 SMITH & WESSON REVOLVER.
This is an absolutely gorgeous little #2 Smith & Wesson Revolver. This is not the usual New York engraved gun. It is unquestionably engraved by the hand of L. D. Nimschke, regarded by many experts as the finest firearms engraver of the 19th century. It shows wonderful execution of his work over the entire gun. The scrolling is tight and flourished in tasteful scroll motifs about the frame, barrel and the cylinder, which is often left plain except for special order presentations. The grips are mother-of-pearl and original to the gun showing age but no abuse. The metal is sharp and crisp as is the engraving, and the gun shows traces of original silver plating scattered in protected areas. This gun was obviously a high-quality, presentation grade gun for a high ranking Civil War Officer or some other entity of importance. I have seen lesser guns with the more common NY engraving bring the same or more than this gun is priced. This gun is wonderful.

2074 - MEDIUM QUALITY MEDITERRANEAN FLINTLOCK PISTOL.
This pistol is very nice but not of extremely high quality that one might find in a $3,000+ gun. I had to take this in a deal for a few other guns in a small collection where the owner would not allow anyone to cherry pick the collection. I just need to blow it out at what I paid for it. Someone will essentially be getting a 30% discount as I feel its a $1750 gun. It has a clean crack through the wrist that is nearly imperceptible when compressed. A little glue and it will be quite presentable.

2030 - VOLCANIC LEVER ACTION PISTOL. LARGE-FRAME VOLCANIC BY NEW HAVEN ARMS WITH 8", "VOLCANIC" MARKED BARREL.
A few pictures are worth a thousand words with this gun. It is absolutely "attic" mint. The gun was put away in nearly perfect condition and shows age but no use or abuse. Scattered tiny specs of raised rust are visible on the barrel over 99%, deep original blue. The frame is a spectacular door-knob brown patina and grips show most all of their original varnish. Minimal handling marks about the gun. The gun is beautiful. You'll find similar guns that have had slight cleaning of surface rust that have sold at auction in the last few years between $30,000 and $50,000.00. This is a world-class gun.

2013 - OUTSTANDING PAIR OF SILVER MOUNTED BRITISH OFFICERS PISTOLS.
These guns are a matched pair manufactured by Freeman and they are outstanding. High art silver mounts are hallmarked in the late 1760 or early 1770 period but I can't recall the exact date off hand. The grotesque butt-plates are awesome. Wood, edges, action and every other feature on these guns is excellent. I only see a pair of these every few years now.

1233 - EXQUISITE, EARLY PAIR OF SILVER MOUNTED OFFICERS PISTOLS BY FREEMAN.
This is a fantastic pair of guns that were originally flint and manufactured in the first half of the 18th century, early 1700's. Freeman was established as probably the premiere maker of his time and pistols such as these rarely come to market. The conversions to flint are wonderful as are the details and condition. If original flint, these would be in the $20,000's range. Excellent metal and silver work, beautiful wood and military motif adorn the pistols in identical form.
