Actualy Ledenica is pistol made from silver and no wood, only full silver cast with deep groves, beautiful pistol, there is allso variant that is gold plated it is called Zlatka, and albanian rat tailed pistol is called Šilja.
Brass pistol with rounded butt is greek pistol, it has no special name in Balkan, only Kubura.
Cheers.
