If the url work ...

Here a Allentown pistol I made two years ago, after I read a post and a photo edited by Eric Kettenburg. For me it's the better pistol I ever seen.
The stock was in old french walnut,
berrel is a Buckeye 13'' long in 54 smoothbore caliber,the flintlock is a Chambers with a modified pan and briddle. Trigger with a stetcher (à la française)
All the inlays I have made are in german silver and the eagle is alf silver-alf brass.
Off couse this pistol shoot very well.

Now my new project is a swivel flintlock gun, all the adress you can have to buy the pieces to make it are welcome.

Thank you. Sans souci

:v Thanks for those beautiful pictures. Of course Eric Ketteneburg's work is well known to be beautifully carried forth. The pistol looks like you have been transported back about 300 years and have just opened the box on the brand new original. Once again---Merci Beaucoup--- :hatsoff:

In reponse to Dogman, I dont know, when I work I dont look at the time, but too much for a correct price to sell it.

Tres elegante, mon frere! I especially liked the tube-sighted rifle on your site, as well as the two left-handed pieces.
