I assume this type of pistol is rather common. But it gets more interesting when they are a pair, both in very good condition, with a well designed hammer and a nice grooved brass lid in the caps compartment.
All parts functioning perfectly ... the two step boxlock mechanisms, the cap box lids, the concealed triggers and ... the multi rifled barrels still able to turn off.
No makers or proof marks; only number 3 and 4 matching in each hammer, breech and barrel.
Most possibly neither British nor Liege. I will call them Continental until some member attributes them a more precise origin, something i would appreciate.
The stocks are made in a wood of rather pronounced intrincate effect, even more than in the pictures; may i risk walnut root ? i don't know ...
Caliber 11 m/m. Barrel lentgh 5.5 cms; total length 15 cms. Weight each 195 grams.
