Prussian Model 1850 Cavalry Pistol
In 1849 the 'KöniglichPreußische Gewehrfabrique PotsdamSpandau', the Royal Prussian Rifle Factory, got the order to make 15.000 pistols of the type M 1850. They weren’t able to start working until 1850, since they had to build up needed technology first, and ended in 1853. The M 1850 has been totally redesigned for the Prussian cavalry and artillery and was the last single shot and smoothbarrelled muzzleloading pistol with percussion lock. French and American – e.g. Samuel Colt – had designed breechloading pistols for long. More information...

Our firearm replicas are intended for decoration or re-enactment. The muzzles have not been drilled, so the weapon is not functional. A professional gunsmith can drill the muzzle and cahnge this nonfunctional decoration pistol into a real firearm.
