Lot 7: Dueling Pistol Set by: James Horn

In the 18th century, dueling had become a regular part of life as a gentleman in the colonies. While publicly frowned upon, the practice lasted into the first quarter of the 19th century and had a profound impact on some of American’s most influential persons. Ready to defend your honor, this beautiful boxed set of Kentucky-style pistols from James Horn comes with everything a good set of dueling pistols would have included. These .50 cal rifled flintlock pistols are presented in a beautiful maple case with separate compartments for round ball and patches. The whole box is lined with a soft velvet to ensure everything stays pristine. Accessories included are a wooden range rod, powder flask, priming flask, and bullet mold.
