Hello All, I just started gently disassembling and beginning to clean a recently acquired attic find percussion pistol. What I know so far is that it is .67 caliber, I think, because the bore is currently rough looking. There are mud wasps in the metal and the wood under the barrel. The barrel is marked MPVDA VII 1445 1966 1966 I believe, as that is what I'm deciphering through the current crud. The stock is stamped 1286 in large numbers like arsenal stock stamps. Is this Mutzig arsenal? Also, it has a pommel ring but is significantly larger than a cavalry model. It looks and is shaped more like a dragoon. I'm fairly certain that the brass nosepiece is not correct and original to this pistol. The iron ramrod appears as though it might be. This is outside of my expertise. I apologize for not posting a picture but I'm sharing the numbers so I can start researching. Condition wise, there is no finish on the barrel, the stock has a lot of dings and dents but still has areas of finish. Thanks in advance! --Dr. Paul
