This is an early 1800’s W. Ketland & Co. Flintlock Pistol. This is a 60 caliber pistol and has a 8” brass barrel. A small portion of the trigger guard seems to have pulled away from the wood slightly. This pistol has a very minimal amount of minor handling dings on both the wood and brass. The lock place is marked W. KETLAND & Co. The brass barrel has some engraving with LONDON found on the top and British proof marks found on the left side. The ramrod seems to be a replacement. Mechanically very strong, holds half cock and full cock.
Thomas Ketland was a British businessman who made high quality firearms in Birmingham England from 1760 until his death in 1816. The business continued making firearms until 1821.
