Late 18th or early 19th century, English flintlock pocket pistol. The pistol has a 1 1/2 inch screw off barrel with a wrench lug on the underside and light engraving at the muzzle. Each side of the frame shows an array of arms and flags, with "TWIGG" on the left side and "LONDON" on the right.

Checkered one piece bag shaped grips with an octagonal brass inscription plate.

Rating Definition:

Good, with a bright cleaned appearance overall, showing some mild handling marks and light pitting. Grips are refinished, with a few dings and chips along with some sharp re-cut checkering. Mechanically excellent.
