    A ‘43 Fazakerley No. 4 Mk. 1 SMLE. It’s a wall hanger ever since my 1960 S. African ball was depleted some years ago.

      My great, great, great Uncle's Belgian made muzzle loading shotgun. Made in 1863. The cap storage compartment lid was made from a U.S. gold piece, and engraved. It was a gift from his father. The shotgun has gold embellishments of his hunting dog, as well as likenesses of the game he hunted.

              I have several pistols that say "1911". Strange, they don't look that old.

                          That would be a Swiss Vetterli made sometimes between 1869 and 1874.

                          For the handguns - Forehand & Wadsworth .32 revolver made sometimes in the 1870's or 1880's.

                          I shot both, I probably will not repeat the experience
