Well done on getting such great items,

Thank you Ken, would it be fair to say that generally speaking, British and Irish pistols pistols were more about function than form?

My little works-of-art lean more towards Lady Ga-Ga, whereas the British/Irish a little more Audrey Hepburn.

Here are a few from my collection, now living with other collectors.
