A New Pistol: SOLD!

THIS PISTOL HAS FOUND A BUYER! YEA!!!

Here is a new spec pistol from Jud! - just completed. It is clearly in the Cumberland style of Simpson and others of the later flint era in the Cumberland Valley.
8 1/2 inch .45 cal swamped barrel
All hardware is silver
Modified Siler Lock
Nicely engraved in the appropriate motifs

Jud is asking $4700 for this beautiful and nicely balanced piece. It is a tack driver with great sparking ignition. I have a wooden box made by Jesse ready to pack it in and ship - purchaser pays shipping and insurance through USPS (not very expensive and worth it for the insurance and exceptional handling).

Three gentlemen, all Jud collectors are currently looking at this so it will go fast!

More pictures will follow - I neglected to photograph the full length of the barrel from the top showing the graceful swamp of the barrel which contributes so much to its balance and feel! The muzzle picture does hint at the swamp.
