Your cart is empty. 18th Century Replica Non Firing Flintlock Pistol - Brass
Reproduction of flintlock gun made of metal and wood with simulated mechanism of loading and firing.
The flintlock pistols had the blistering of a flint or flint stone, which when the hammer was triggered, it produced the spark that ignited the gun powder. All these pistols required the manual recharge of their ammunition after each shot. The ammunition, which was introduced through the mouth of the barrel, consisted of gunpowder, projectile and paper wad, which served as a cap to keep the two previous ones compressed inside the barrel.
These pistols were used as self-defense weapons until the middle of the 19th century. Their effective range was short and often they were used as a complement to a sword or knife. Flintlock pistols were prone to many problems compared to modern weapons, due to moisture or accidental shots.
In combat, usually these weapons were used for a single shot, since the method of reloading was very slow and it was not usually time enough to recharge. Therefore the fighters after firing were forced to draw their sabers or swords or to use the pistol as a blackjack, since the circumstances did not allow to recharge them in time.

So, as far as size, weight, and being what you see on the pictures, it all checks out. But, it's not the greatest construction. Namely, the buttplate on it is tacked on with two crappy nails and after about 20 mins of fiddling with it they're already starting to back themselves out. The striker plate was also really loose, but that can be fixed by tightening the screw for it. Overall it's a decent prop, but you might want to plan to find good brass screws after you get it.

This is a very well made Flintlock pistol prop at this price point. Very well made with real wood and metal. You will not be disappointed. If you want a better prop, go buy a real one for lots of $$$$$$. Thanks.

Quality of these was exactly as advertised and I couldn't be happier with the product. I used these as a base for a cosplay commission for a friend. The wood is high quality and the hardware is solid and feels very authentic. These will make any costume or collection step it up a notch.
