Does a case eject/extract? I love the gun btw and would really like to see more pics of it with the action open and grip panels off...and is that a forestock? How big is this...thing? Do you have anything for a size reference?
I have something like that years ago.
when century arms pulled out of Canada circa C68, they cleaned up the warehouse and I bought a
box full of guns for cheap and one of them looked like this.
I will go back throu my ledgers and see if I can find it, I think I know who bought it.
It looks factory made to me, if the bore is good , should shoot fine.
It will be the only one at the range

Looks like the demon love child of a Reisling and a Sheridan that hit ALL the branches of the ugly tree.
Now I want one.

Good description..lol
Don't know a thing about the gun itself, but I suspect that the name on the paperwork is a bit of a mis-spelling.
"Le Moustique" (pronounced roughly like a Maudit Anglo would say "la mustic" ) is French for "The Moskito" - an appropriate enough name for a single shot pistol.
If it's old enough, and there are no maker's marks on the pistol, this kind of mistranslation would be fairly common.
Cheers, good luck in your quest.

Bring this puppy out to BC and I'll test fire it for yah!
This thing looks awesome! I'd love an oldschool lookin' who-the-f-knows-what-it-is pistol....
I can't help you at all with what it might be, other than the straight grip makes me think it came from Europe a looooooooong ass time ago.
Whats the trigger pull like? Funny lookin' little trigger on it...

I was going to say an Webley or maybe a Jurek... But on further examination, the grips remind me of a Tokarev, maybe something from the Eastern bloc.
Did you take it apart? Any markings any where?
