Vierloops zakpistool c. 1799 - 1893

This four-barreled pocket pistol, created by Guillaume Mariëtte between c. 1799 and 1893, is a striking example of early firearm design. The gun's sleek, silver-plated metal and intricate engravings contrast beautifully with the dark wood of its grip. Despite its small size (only 18 cm in length), this pistol is powerful, with a calibre of 9.4 mm. It's a fascinating historical artifact that highlights the ingenuity and artistry of early gunsmithing.
