Default A late 1800s French cane gun

Please, not a discussion on the their legal aspects. I picked this up from a very good Friend and have always wanted one for my eclectic collection of fire arms. it's kind of cool on how it functions. Remove the tip of the cane which contains a pair of prongs (used to cock the trigger....last picture, and to remove the spent shell.)Next, you twist the cane apart and insert the shell and then put it back together. The on prong is inserted on a hole on back of cane handle (seen in the pictures) and this cocks the trigger and then ready for you to push the trigger.
Thanks for looking, Joe
