Hi All,
I have, having been handed down through the family a Percussion Flintlock Pistol, which I am currently cleaning as it has been overlooked for a good number of years.
Very interested to know that having had a Riding Officer in the Ancestry and also another Ancestor who was a Customs and Excise Officer, as to whether they may have been issued with a weapon of this sort, which was made in London, but no maker.
I also have its Powder Flask.
Any information would be most welcome and any leads to any web sites would be a great help.
Cheers
