SOLD PENDING FUNDS .69cal Tower Flintlock Pistol
Up for sale is a .69cal Tower Flintlock Smoothbore Pistol.
Original owner bought this a long time ago, Antiqued the barrel/lock/stock with some kind of brown grease "or atleast smells like grease" I got a lot of it off the barrel with windex but the new owner can either leave the pistol how it is or take some time to get her shined up. This pistol has NEVER been fired by me nor by the original owner, Zero strikes on the frizzen, never loaded! You're getting pretty much a brand new pistol with just some minor shelf wear.
No rust inside or outside the barrel. Barrel is silk smooth.
Crisp trigger with what i would judge to be close to 6lb trigger pull.
I cleaned the lock lastnight, scrubbed all of the grease out, washed it down with windex and then gave her some Rem Oil and she works perfectly smooth and makes a Two clean sounding clicks as the hammer is pulled back.
Frizzen opens smoothly.
Inside of lock is perfect.
New owner can take it as she is or restore her to his or her fancy.
I am asking $150 Shipped OBO.
All the brown you see on the barrel is the antiqued stuff the original owner put on it. No clue what he used but it does come off easily.
Lock is marked with what looks to be a crown and the letters "GR" Stamped below the crown.
