Left Handed Flintlock Conversion Pistol

[Loyer]

Kijiji has a cool left handed flintlock conversion pistol being offered. I would buy it but I pissed the seller off when I wanted to pay with ###### to reduce scam risk. Now he has blocked me.

Also seller refuses to mail item so you would need to pick it up in person in Toronto but only in the evenings.

Hope you have better luck than I did dealing with the seller (Marco).

What a pile of junk that is! Not much useable there for the price tag!

It is a Saxon 1760 Horse pistol. The only military flintlock pistol made in left and right hand variations to fit on either side of the horses' neck.

I agree it is in very poor condition and in need of a percussion hammer but I would be thrilled to buy it for that price.

Perfect candidate for a restoration.

If a Toronto resident buys this gun, please consider selling it to me.

What happened after the thread you already made about this and nuked here? https://www.canadiangunnutz.com/forum/showthread.php/2335438

I thought you'd got in touch with a local board member that was going to do the deal by proxy?

Local member wasn't available in the evening and the seller is only available in the evening.
