Lot 8126 | Doppelläufige Steinschlosspistole, W. Paris, Derby, um 1795
Nebeneinanderliegende, oktagonale Läufe im Kaliber 13 mm. Patiniertes, originales Finish der Metallflächen. Neben den Kammern übliche Beschusszeichen. Silberkorn. Goldgefütterte Zündlocher. An der Wurzel des eingehakten Laufbündels einfaches, geometrisches Dekorband. Laufunterseite mit doppelten Keilösen, die Keile geschlitzt und mittels Bolzen vor Verlust gesichert. Schwanzschraubenblatt aus Eisen mit ansprechender Gravur. Die glatten Eisenschlosse mit rollengelagerten Batterien, jeweils signiert "W.Paris". Der rechte Hahn ist am Ansatz des Schwanenhalses abgebrochen, Reste eines alten Reparaturversuches sind erkennbar. Das Bruchstück liegt dem Los bei, somit kann die Pistole ohne großen Aufwand und Kosten wieder restauriert werden. Doppelabzug. Massive Silbergarnitur mit diversen Prüfmarken und feinen, dem damaligen Geschmack entsprechenden floralen Gravuren. Silberne medaillonförmige Daumenauflage mit glattem Spiegel. Nussholzvollschäftung mit schlichtem Schnitzwerk, dieses aber in hoher, präziser Qualität. Das fein gemaserte Holz weist kleine, altersbedingte Druckstellen auf. Zeitgenössischer, mit hoher Wahrscheinlichkeit originaler Ladestock, dieser mit erneuertem Messingdopper und gegenüberliegendem Kugelzieher, die verschraubte Schutzkappe hierfür fehlt. Mechanisch in Ordnung, Länge circa 33 cm. William Paris wird im Stöckl, Band 2, S. 914, als in Derby um 1792 tätig erwähnt. Octagonal side-by-side barrels in 13 mm calibre. The metal parts with original patinated finish. Usual proof marks at the breeches. Silver front sight. Gold-lined flash holes. A simple geometrical band at the base of the hook-on barrels. The undersides of the barrels with two wedge-shaped eyelets, the wedges slitted and secured with a pin. Iron tang with attractive engraving. The smooth iron locks with roller-mounted frizzens, each signed "W.Paris". The right cock broken at the base of the swan neck, visible traces of an old repair attempt. The fragment is enclosed, the pistol can therefore be restored without much effort and cost. Double trigger. Heavy silver mounts with various proof marks and fine floral engravings typical of the time. Silver escutcheon with smooth surface. Walnut full stock with simple, but precisely crafted carvings of high quality. The finely grained wood featuring small age-related dents. The ramrod most likely original, dating from the period, with a replaced brass tip and bullet extractor on the opposite end, the screw top missing. Mechanically intact, length approximately 33 cm. William Paris is mentioned in Stöckl, vol. 2, p. 914, as active in Derby around 1792.
