Boxlock percussion pistol, double-barreled with bayonet, mid-1800s. 775 grams, 11" long. One of the most interesting handguns we have seen with a rifle-like double octagonal barrel with 5" bayonet hinged to sight at end, each barrel separately fired with its own disappearing trigger and lock (side by side), with hinge-action to tilt the barrel forward and put in the ammunition, carved wooden grips (somewhat worn) on either side of steel handle, the metal cleaned but with very light surface pitting, good working order.
