A couple of target pistols

Bayer1957 · Nov 7, 2022

Target pistols about 1860
Gunsmith Johann Hafner from Bozen /South-Tirol

Caliber is 7 mm
I've never found such a small caliber at this time.

Adjustable rear sight

I look forward to shooting with them.

The original bullets have 7 mm.

The greatest width of the Barrels is 7,63 mm

I still have to try if that fits
As well as the Plaster thickness.

Beautiful in every sense. Pics like that make all of us envious.
BTW, what is that tool in the cased set right above the mallet?

I have no idea what it`scalled in English.
It is to make Patches yourself.

Dixie Gunworks sells them as patch/wad punches, so that is I guess the more correct term.

Edited to delete info suggesting that it should be called a “die”.

I’m not envious, green is just my favourite colour.
