  • Description:

    Antique Prussian Cavalry pistol dated 1872.  This massive pistol shows an 8 3/4" 68 caliber barrel with a bright excellent bore.  The lock is marked HEBZBERG CRAUSE.  This piece shows all original parts, an excellent lock and the unique cap safety/guard.  This piece shows the crown FW at the breech and on the left stock flat.  All parts are matching to the serial #2749.  The "in the white" metal and wood rate excellent.  The butt shows a unit marking 26.A.6.84. Despite the fact that this pistol was built for cavalry the unit marking indicates that this pistol was issued to the 26th Artillery Reg't 6th Battery issue #84. This pistol appears to be slightly above average in condition as compared to a number that have been on the recent market.
