Bonjour
Hi all,
I want to show you a little flintlock pistol from the early 18th century. I‘ve spend my Sunday repairing its main-spring and cleaning it carefully .
This pistol is nicely engraved in the doghead, trigger-guard and butt cap. The engravings were certainly hammer and chisel done and they are representative of the French engraving style. It’s signed “Veyrenc a Aubenas “ Aubenas is a little town near the Ardeche, a beautiful river.
