Description: | A moulded copper alloy toy pistol dating from 1620 ? 1640 AD. The toy pistol is part of a multi-component three-dimensional pistol. The stock, barrel, ramrod pipe and pan have been cast in one piece and there are four hoes in the stock; three for the lock mechanism and one for the ramrod (both are missing). The vent is large and the integrally cast pan has a square dish profile with bevelled sides. A long tapering, slightly bent butt terminates in an octagonally fluted ovoid pommel. The fore-end of the stock is rounded and the faceted barrel has stamped decoration along the three top facets. This is a wavy linear decoration made up of lots of little circular stamps. There is a transverse groove along the centre of the barrel. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | 1620
