Hi Colorado,

A very fine wheel lock puffer pistol. The date makes it from the Leibgart of Augustus I.
The auction of Hermann Historica has sold a similar gun at there 2011 auction ( 24.11.2011) lot number 23.
I can not for now find the marking in my books but it looks like a spade?

@ FernandoK

here are the fotos of the real Thing - i wanted to avoid dismantling so I took fotos of another piece first, sorry.

As you can see there is an angle between the bar and its end so the trigger is easily able to move the bar backwards.

@ Marcus den toom: the pistol by Hermanns auction 2011 is indeed the same type but not my pistol - there are many differences at the lock.

I seem to see that they are two pieces, and what we see is the union. This would indicate that there are two sear, the first sear, which is the long bar, and the second sear, which is between the sheets of the real spring, and whose end is perpendicular (or almost) to the long bar.

It's what I see only with seeing the picture. It would be better to hold the piece in your hands

affectionately

Anyway, if the firing bar is of one piece, the angle (not 90 degrees) allows a movement to the side, and in this differs from the copy that gave otigen to the post, where the angle is 90 degrees. It remains, also, to know how the firing insurance act: I do not know if the second copy has it

Affectionately
