The lock is marked "BRANDER/& POTTS" at the center and has a burst pattern next to the pan, floral designs on the tail, a sliding safety, frizzen spring roller, and a semi-waterproof pan. The barrel has a blade front sight, a burst pattern at the front of the low rib, and "BRANDER & POTTS/70/MINORIES LONDON." Multiple generations of the Brander family were gunsmiths active in the Minories in London from 1690 to 1832. The last Brander, Martin, had a shop with Thomas Potts at 70 Minories near the Tower of London and Winchelsea from 1825-1832. The upper tang has some floral engraving and a notch rear sight, and the trigger guard bow also has some light designs. The stock has checkering on the wrist, a "DM" marked silver thumb plate, and a bare butt. A wooden ramrod is included with the tip absent.

Fair. The pistol has gray and brown patina throughout and light pitting. The front sight is worn down. The refinished stock is also fair with a crack at the toe of the lock plate, crisp checkering, a split in the ramrod channel, and some minor dings. The lock functions fine, and the markings are legible.
