Original Item: Only One Available. Specifically produced in England for the North American Fur Trade, these are Flintlock Trade pistols intended for the use of the Trappers and the Native American population as well. The lock is marked W. / KETLAND / & CO. and the barrel is marked “LONDON”. WILLIAM KETLAND is recorded as working from 1740-1804 where after it became KETLAND & CO from 1804 until 1831.

The pistol has all brass mounts, and the barrel bears British London Proofhouse Marks. The lock does NOT have a pan re-enforcement arm on the outside of the frizzen, which is a feature of British Flintlock Pistol prior to 1760, however for a cost saving measure these cheaper unbridged locks were re-adopted for the Fur Trade.

These were widely distributed to the Native populations in both the United States and Canada during the early years after the revolutionary war. Barrel measures 8 3/4″ and is about .65 bore, though unfortunately the brass-tipped ramrod is absent.

In nice display condition, just what one would have expected to see on the North American frontier!
