This is an authentic T. Richards screw-on “cannon barrel” boxlock flintlock pistol, made in London around the late 18th century. It features neat engraving, silver wire inlays and a grotesque silver mask cap, plus an Irish registration mark (W-X 1168) and London proofs
Mechanically it’s in very good order — action works cleanly. Bore is a bit dim but smooth. There’s a small split at the top left of the grip, otherwise the piece is solid and retains its original finish and fittings
Specs: .60 flintlock caliber, barrel approx. 4-3/4”
Guaranteed AUTHENTIC & Includes CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY from very reputable antique guns dealer
