Reminds me of a 16g I back in the '70s, I don't think mine was kosher Could you imagine firing that with one hand and having it 'double' on you? Owwww.... RD

Here is my old howda .50 caliber pistol given to me by Ura "Duke" Duvall a old time collector that got me started collecting. It was a teat or pin fire, I estimate built back around 1840s. Duke thought it probley was a "boarding" pistol probley used by a pirate. It has no stamped info. There are 2 threaded holes on the side that duke thought was for a clip so gun could be carried in a waste slash.
