Peter's Brother Joseph Claborough operated as a gunsmith at various addresses in Birmingham between 1868 & 1902. This is an excellent pair of flintlock overcoat pistols by Claborough made at his premises in Lincoln. The pistols are each 7 ½” overall length with 2 ½” screw off octagonal barrels. The barrel’s smooth bores have just light staining consistent with age. The steel actions are both engraved by the maker 'Clabrough Lincoln' and have Martial banners and arms and foliate devices. They have ‘dog tooth’ engraved box lock actions with side mounted ‘v’ shaped rain proof pans, roller bearing frizzen springs, sliding safeties and folding concealed triggers. The actions work crisply. The pistols have English proof /inspection marks on the underside of the frames and barrels. The bag shaped wood grips with chequered panels, inlaid void diamond shaped white metal escutcheons and white metal Lion’s head butt caps are excellent & undamaged. The price includes UK delivery. NB As antique flintlock pistols no licence is required to own them in the UK if retained as a part of a collection or display. Sn 21019
