Pair of Pellet-Lock Pistols with Case with Accessories 1800 - 1850

This pair of pellet-lock pistols, made between 1800 and 1850 by Charles Moore, is a fine example of 19th-century firearms craftsmanship. The pistols feature intricate details, including finely checkered wood grips, engraved metalwork, and brass accents. Each pistol comes with a ramrod, nipple wrench, bullet mold, and a powder flask, all stored in a meticulously crafted wooden case. These pistols, now housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, represent a significant historical and artistic achievement in the development of firearms.
