Another beautiful find, Fernando. As you well know, these were highly favored by British naval officers to 'discourage mutinies' and for boarding. The spring-loaded bayonet device and central lock design were patents of Waters and he is most affiliated with this gun's pattern.

Thank you Mark.
Yes, examples by Waters are excelent. This one is no more than a humble competitor .
But, you know, when you don't have a dog you hunt with a cat
