John Forbes of Liverpool Sawhandle Smoothbore Adjustable Trigger .62 Calibre Percussion Conversion Fine Antique Dueling Pistol
Howdy Townpost! I have a truly amazing one of a kind piece here for sale. I bought this for myself in the US over a year ago and I had it professionally restored and fully repaired. I am now looking to sell it. John Forbes, of Liverpool, was gunmaker to His Royal Highness, the Prince of Wales, later King George IV. And according to my research made mostly dueling and target pistols, and some small pocket pistols for only 5 years. Those years being 1805-1810. He spelt his name with I or Iohn and later switched the spelling to a J or John based on public records and some of the other examples of his dueling pistols that have sold at auction. That makes this a very rare and finely made pistol. This pistol would have cost a small fortune at the time it was made. Oftentimes dueling pistols come in pairs but it was cheaper to buy just one if they were offered as a single, and should you encounter someone who has insulted your honor and you demand satisfaction from them, they can bring their own pistol to the duel. The engraving is extremely fine, intricate and skilled. It would have taken many dozens of hours to complete and it was all done by hand. The engraving features drums, banners and spears, floral patterns, sunbursts on the base plate and lock, and a pineapple in the front of the trigger guard, which symbolizes wealth and status. Because this gun is a percussion conversion of the original flintlock mechanism the percussion hammer is engraved in a different style by a different engraver in a more simple floral and fish mouth style of engraving with gold inlay. Every screw is engraved to look like a flower and the escutcheons are also each engraved like a wreath. Overall there is a lot of fine detail with some simpler and less detailed later additions on the percussion mechanism and one spot on the side plate. The gun features gold inlay on the hammer which largely worn away. There is silver inlay on the outside of the breach, and a sterling silver wreath styled band wrapped around the base of the grip and a sliver bead front sight. The ramrod tip (which is a replacement) is silver plated brass, so too are the front stock cap near the muzzle, the rod pipe, cross key, and escutcheon around it are too. The grip baseplate is silver plated steel. The workmanship of this pistol is certainly of a quality of gunmaker worthy enough of being the gun maker of the Prince of Wales. The pistol is located in Calgary AB for local delivery or pickup. Or I can ship it too.

Photo of Brand new Sulun Arms TAC-12 "M3 Super 90" 12GA 20" Semi Auto/ Pump Action Shotgun $850
$850
Brand new Sulun Arms TAC-12 "M3 Super 90" 12GA 20" Semi Auto/ Pump Action Shotgun $850
Brand New Non-Restricted Action: Semi Auto/ Pump Caliber: 12GA Capacity: 5 Barrel Length: 20" Ghost Ring Iron Sights Dual-Mode Capability Inertia-Driven Operating System Rough texture touchpoints Lifetime Warranty Coming with: Manual and choke tube kit. By using the receiver of an existing non-restricted shotgun we have been able to add M3 style components to achieve the same look, feel and function of the legendary M3 Super 90, but without the prohibited classification. The TAC-12 “M3 Super 90” is a dual-mode semi-automatic and pump action 12GA shotgun. It can be quickly converted from autoloading to pump by simply turning a spring loaded ring located on the end of the forearm. The M3 was developed in the 1980’s for special operations and elite law enforcement units who required a shotgun that could adapt to various tactical roles. It’s dual-mode system allows for effective operation of both standard and special purpose ammunition, (i.e. rubber, tear, flare, etc.) on the fly. The M3 was designed to operate under the most adverse conditions and boasts easy handling, accuracy and a high rate of fire. Notable adopters include the Canadian JTF2, Czech 601st Special Forces Group and French GIGN. The TAC-12 “M3 Super 90” features a 20” barrel threaded for interchangeable chokes. It has a 3” chamber and is fed by a 5-shot tubular magazine (6 shots, 2.75”). The extended magazine tube features a barrel clamp for additional durability. There is a magazine cut-off/chamber-dump button so the shooter can directly chamber a special round without having to cycle through the entire magazine. Fixed on top of the receiver are 3-dot ghost-ring sights for fast target acquisition, and tapped holes for the addition of an optional top picatinny rail. The stock is fixed polymer with non-slip grip checkering, with a rubber buttpad and a sling loop located on both sides. The pump handle is ergonomically shaped with non-slip channels for use with gloves or in wet environments. As the original, it is operated by the proven inertia system. This system delivers unmatched reliability, cleaner operation, and lightning-fast cycling in a lightweight, ultra-durable design. With fewer moving parts and minimal maintenance, it handles the toughest conditions with ease.
