Very Large British 12mm Pinfire Parlor Pistol made by Joseph Charles Reilly c.1857
$2,895
In summer of 1856 Joseph Charles Reilly began advertising his new pinfire shotguns. In 1857 he retired and by April 1859 his son would be marking the guns, E.M. Reilly & Co.
This English-proofed gun would’ve been made during this 3-year period and changes the understanding that some Reilly experts had on what type of guns Reilly was making at the time.
This gun is in amazing condition and is the only one of its kind I have ever seen.
