Pair of Boxlock pistols by SPENCER of London

Hello Corrado

I do not want to seem unfriendly, but it seems to me that the box in which the accessories are has some details that do not agree. First of all, the "label" is very old and does not match the condition of the box. The caliper for melting bullets has a tip that acts as a ramrod for muzzle loading, and in unscrewable barrel and forced bullet pistols, it is unnecessary. The other end seems to have ended in a corkscrew to extract the bullet, broken and unnecessary. In addition, it lacks the key that fitted into the shoulder in the barrel to unscrew it. The oil can seems modern to me, and I've seen it in a painter's box. The set of fibers seems to me that it does not correspond, unless it is for cleaning- What is interesting is the powder horn.

I also see no concordance in the two boxes.

Affectionately
