These came in a paire!
They look like duelling pistols!!! ;-)
Found in a house clearence.
The great difference in serial numbers stroke me; one as number 132063 and the other 1807.
All other marks are simillar and nearly all at the same place.

Very cool Kris. The top example has the Canadian acceptance stamp and looks to be dated for WWI, 16 on the body and 18 on the chamber.
I would assume that this thread should be in the Western Allies WWI section, not that for the Imperial Germany & Austro-Hungarians?

Whatever its just an opinion.
Nice that they have the barrel trumpets (I think thats what the flared parts are called). I have a WW1 example in a WW2 holster so it doesn't have that part. Great quality flare pistols IMO.
I had one of these once, it was sleeved to 12 bore. Please..., don't ask.

Hey Jerry, I see what you mean!
So the "C" with the arrow in is the Canadian acceptance stamp!
That is the one with the highest serial number.
