I have post this thread some times ago but still no find a similar example.
This pistol have a miquelet lock of the same type than Algerian moukala but from smaller size ( 13 cm ) standard Algerian gun lock use to be about 18 cm so this lock had been made specially for a pistol.
I 'm pretty sure that this lock was made in qty so It should be possible to find more examples.
I've attached a few photos of This pistol and I hope that this time someone will be able to tell me more...
I've already saw many Algerian pistols but never with the same Lock.
Thanks in advance for any info!
