Default A luxury flintlock pistol

I thought you will enjoy seeing this one .

Just acquired by a local fellow collector ...

Signed F Gilbert a Strasbourg, as engraved under the pan. Fully mounted in silver, with the mark here and there; this could be that of Johann Jacob Dörffer (1755) who did other silver work for Gilbert. The lock with parts gilded, as seen in others of the kind.
This could be one of a pair, as often executed by this gun maker.
