British Brass-Barreled Flintlock Holster Pistol By Ketland & Co.

Lot # 1376 (Sale Order: 377 of 649)      

.60 cal, 8” round barrel with a very good bore. The brass barrel and other hardware has mostly toned to a pleasant mild ocher patina showing some scattered mild tarnishing and light handling marks. The barrel is embellished with the light looping motif commonly seen on Ketland pistols and shows engraved “LONDON” though the breech shows Birmingham proofs. There is a small rosette embellishment along the bow of the guard with the hardware otherwise spartan in nature showing single line bordering. The lockplate is a mix of gunmetal and gray-brown patina showing some old oxidation and strong maker markings in the center; the frizzen is unbridled. The smooth walnut stock remains in very good plus condition showing a few small drying cracks and minor flakes along the edges, light dings and handling marks. There is a crisp “XIX” assembly mark along the ramrod channel and the wood exhibits some rather nice straight grain figure through the grip. The included simple hickory ramrod appears to have a hard rubber tip. The pistol remains in the original flint and the lock seems to function well mechanically. A very good brass-barreled Ketland. (13A10575-83) {ANTIQUE} (800/1200)

Ottoman Sea Service Flintlock Pistol

Lot # 1377 (Sale Order: 378 of 649)      

.69 cal, 9” round barrel with a good bore showing some scattered light pitting. This is an interesting pistol in the sea service pattern seldom seen in this country as it is an Ottoman contract and property-marked gun, likely made in Belgium. The arm remains in original flint and the barrel and lock have mostly toned to a medium gunmetal patina showing evidence of an old cleaning with some thin scratches and remnants of light pitting. The markings remain strong showing the Sultan’s tughra atop the breech and a small roundel with Ottoman Turkish in the center of the lockplate, the lock being of rather spartan construction as would be expected. The simple brass hardware is a mild ocher patina showing an old cleaning and some scattered light dings and the smooth walnut stock remains in about very good plus condition showing some honest wear and mild smoothing overall from the years with light dings and handling marks. The swiveling ramrod assembly and large iron lanyard ring are intact and the lock seems to function well mechanically. An attractive example of a very scarce pistol for the advanced martial or Ottoman collector. (13B11217-11) {ANTIQUE} (800/1200)

Extremely Rare Harrington & Richardson Premier Rebounding Hammer Revolver With Original Box

Lot # 1378 (Sale Order: 379 of 649)      

serial #3620, 32 S&W, 3” ribbed round barrel with an about good bore showing some light pitting and oxidation with strong rifling. This is a fine example of a very rare variant Premier representing the earliest rebounding hammer system offered by H&R in 1895. The metal surfaces retain about 97% original nickel finish showing a few scattered small flakes toning to gray-brown patina and a few areas of light dings and scratches. The triggerguard retains strong bright blue in the protected areas mostly flaking to a pleasant gray-brown patina while the hammer and trigger show lovely vibrant case-hardened colors. The barrel address remains crisp showing three patent dates. The black checkered hard rubber grips remain in excellent condition and retain perfect fit. Barrel-to-frame fit is solid, timing is a little off but the action otherwise seems to function normally with properly rebounding hammer. The included red paper-covered box remains in near excellent condition showing some light handling marks and darkening along the top of the lid. The end label is completely intact and the interior lid label is also very fine and specifically calls out the “Re-bounding Hammer”. Mr. Littlefield’s notes indicate this is the only such-marked box that he has ever seen. Only about 4000 of this model were manufactured before production ceased in favor of the more economical non-rebounding models. A superb find for the dedicated collector. (13A11319-32) {ANTIQUE} [The Richard Littlefield H&R Collection] (800/1200)

Scarce Albanian SKS Semi-Auto Carbine By Um Gramsh

Lot # 1379 (Sale Order: 380 of 649)      

serial #03019-78, 7.62x39mm, 20 1/2” chrome-lined barrel with a bright excellent bore. The desirable Albanian SKS is the rarest of any of the major producers (China, Russia, Yugoslavia, Romania, Albania) as only about 15,000-20,000 were produced and most were destroyed following the Bosnian Wars of the 1990s. The metal surfaces retain about 95% arsenal-refurbished blue with overall minor high edge and operational wear toning to gray, a few small spots of light oxidation, and the expected light handling marks. The characteristic bolt carrier with AK-style handle and bolt are mostly bright with some light oxidation staining. The triggerguard is numbered to another gun and all the other serialized parts including the piston and rear sight are numbered to the receiver. The hardwood stock and elongated three-vent handguard which gives this carbine its unique look, rates about very good plus with scattered dents, dings, and light handling marks, as well as some areas of crazing and orange peel texturing in the finish. The stock is equipped with the correct double trap buttplate. The underside of the barrel is import-marked, the sights and cleaning rod are intact, the bayonet locks up tightly in both positions, and a soiled AK sling, cleaning kit, and oiler are included. The action of this collectable SKS variant appears to function well mechanically. (23A11221-14) {C&R} (800/1200)

Lot # 1381 (Sale Order: 382 of 649)      

.58 cal., 40” barrel with an about very good bore showing oxidation and light pitting throughout the softened rifling. The metal surfaces are toning to a mottled blend of gray and plum brown patina with overall spots of light-moderate oxidation, light-moderate pitting and various tool marks around the breech, and scattered speckles of pinprick pitting.

The upper sling swivel and nipple are contemporary replacements The rear sight and cupped tulip-head ramrod with retaining swell are intact, and a rather tender old brown leather sling with single brass hook is included showing overall cracking and crazing.

serial #72, .577 cal., 39” barrel with a mostly bright about very good plus bore showing areas of light pitting and light oxidation and softened rifling near the muzzle. This low-numbered rifle is one of approximately 1700 “Suhl Enfield” purchased by the firm of Schuyler, Hartley & Graham to complete a contract for 10,000 rifle-muskets for Ohio. According to authors Whisker, Hartlzer Yantz et al. of Firearms From Europe p. 91, the firm defaulted on that contract but was able to sell the Suhl rifles to the Ordnance Department. The barrel and middle and rear bands have aged to a plum brown patina with wear to gray around the muzzle, moderate pitting on the breech and bolster, and some scattered spots of old light oxidation. The lockplate, hammer and upper barrel band are toning to a smoky gray patina with some pinprick pitting on the lockplate and some spots of light oxidation. The brass fittings are toning to a light mustard patina with some small impact marks on the buttplate and some spots of minor tarnish. The toe of the buttplate and the various screw heads are marked “72”. The lockplate is simply marked “Suhl / V.C.S.” for Valentin Christoph Schilling and the barrel bands are stamped “S.” The walnut stock rates near fine with a chip missing from either side of the ramrod channel just behind the forend cap, and overall minor dings and handling marks; “JOHN” is scratched on the left stock flat, and there are no visible cartouches. The sights, sling swivels, and ramrod are intact, and the action of this scarce rifle is strong and crisp. Firearms From Europe remarks that these Suhl rifle-muskets “remain some of the rarest of all Civil War arms whose importation can be documented.” (23B10575-61) {ANTIQUE} (800/1200)

The walnut stock rates very good with some chips missing from the edges of the ramrod channel, streaks of finish wear on the forend above the upper barrel band, an approximately 7” area on the left side of the buttstock which was left more roughly finished, a small brass nail and two extra nail holes on the top of the wrist, and some other handling marks. The rear of the lockplate is protruding from the stock, the rear lockplate screw head is broken in two at the slot, and the circular profile of the added bolt through the breech is visible on the right barrel flat. The lower buttplate screw is missing and there is an added hole near the heel, the rear sight leaves are missing, the nipple is a later replacement, and the action is strong and crisp.
