GOOD PAIR OF FRENCH FLINTLOCK POCKET PISTOLS MARKED

Both with two-stage 3 - 1/8" iron .50 caliber smoothbore barrels with cannon muzzles and both stamped "A (star) / C" near the breeches. Both have unmarked rounded lockplates devoid of any engraving. Plain iron mounts in the classic French style, probably circa 1760. Both pistols are stocked in walnut and feature silver-wire scrollwork around the barrel tangs and a relief border as well. Both have what appears to be their original iron ramrods. CONDITION: Very good with all iron components cleaned bright and showing some grey spotting. Locks are in their original flintlock configurations and retain strong properly functioning actions. Stocks show some minor scattered marks from use and some small pieces of silver wire inlays are absent on both. A very attractive pair of flintlock pocket pistols.
