A most unusual and beautiful pistol IMHO.
The only other styles of double barrel flintlock pistols I have seen are: fixed side by side barrels with left and right hand locks, and turn over barrels with their own locks.
An observation of the subject pistol.....with both pans full of powder, there would be a risk of double discharge UNLESS the pans have a really good seal to stop any spark getting to the lower pan powder.
