Spanish Husar Pistol 1789

[midelburgo]

The number 17 at the barrel and at the screw that closes the barrel end is also incised in the wood. I supose it is an assembling code. (194 for Corrado´s pistol).

I have the 2004 JL Calvo book since September, but I have hardly look at it. I supose it superseeds the one from the 1970s.

I checked another Spanish Army Status from 1815 and the Regimiento de Husares Españoles (with another two) still existed in 1815.
