That said, I still wish I owned this piece. That it is a Tourist piece would be all the excuse I need to convert it into a shooting gun with a new barrel and utilizing one of my spare miquelet locks out of my collection. LOL I really like the stock decoration on this one.

Hi Rick,
I sent to Fernando detailled explanations and he is right of course.
That is said but what is very disturbing is the fact that this pistol is even better in 'real' than on photographs. The decoration, the weight balance, the size, it's a nice piece so it would be difficult for me to leave it.
Please, look at this Algerian Moukala made in 1918 (the date in Gregoran calendar is engraved on the stock)...not mine unfortunately...

Best,
Kubur
