Description
AR221013L: Replica 1825 Italian Percussion Pistol, Brass
Denix
This reproduction Italian percussion pistol makes a great collectible or costuming piece for the discerning collector. It has intricate detailing on the handle cap, firing mechanism, and the barrel which give it a great antique look. With a wooden grip and a brass finish, this replica could almost be the real thing!
Percussion pistols were a technological upgrade from the flintlock pistol in that they use shock-sensitive explosives such as fulminate or mercury to fire the round rather than relying on the spark from flint striking the pan. This makes them far more reliable in wet conditions than their predecessors.
