Hollis Screw-Barrel .40 Cal. Percussion Antique Coat Pistol
Howdy Townpost. This is a fine English pocket or coat pistol made by Hollis and Sheath company which is the precursor to Hollis and Sons or Isaac Hollis and Sons. Wallace and sheath became Hollis and Sons in 1861 when Isaac Brentnall Sheath left the company to immigrate to Canterbury, Australia and raised sheep and owned coal mines in an area that is now a suburb of Melbourne. His gun making days were behind him, he'd become an industrialist down undah. Sheath & Hollis co-founded the company in 1849 and Sheath stayed with the company until as previously stated, 1861. That dates this firearm between 1849 and 1861. This is a single shot side hammer lock percussion pistol. It's a screw-barrel meaning you unthread the barrel, fill the powder chamber and place a ball on top it. You then use the barrel itself and the threads to seat the ball inside of the breach. Then a percussion cap on the nipple, put it at half cock put it in your dapper overcoat and pull it out should you meet any Scallywags on your travels. The gun is mechanically excellent. The bore condition is very good, there is some minor shallow pitting but overall the rifling is very sharp and clean and shiny. The overall exterior condition of the metal and wood is in excellent shape the diamond checkering are sharp and defined. The powder chamber has only minor pitting as pictured and was cleaned out internally. For a defensive coat pistol, the sights are excellent and easy to pick up and with a rifled bore in good condition I expect this pistol could be fired very accurately. To shoot this gun I would use 3F powder. Both number 10 and 11 caps fit the nipple reasonably well. A 40 caliber lead ball would be ideal as a projectile but you could definitely use .375 caliber balls with a patch no problem in my opinion. I haven't tried it myself though. The pistol is located in Calgary AB for local delivery or pickup. Or I can ship it nationwide too.

Please text anytime 6476871484. Fully functional double action revolver in perfect condition. Compact pocket revolver high quality and can fit in the palm of your hand.. No PAL required. Comes with FRT paperwork. Reloadable ammo is available but sold separately. Iver Johnson "American Bull Dog", .38 RF short and long Revolver Iver Johnson was one of the most prolific makers of pocket revolvers in America, from 1871 to nearly the present. One of the earliest makers of bulldog-type, double action revolvers, the Iver Johnson American Bull Dog is well known and in demand. These were made by Johnson's and the relief grip showing the American eagle on a shield is typical of Johnson's ware. ​ This one is in very fine to excellent condition, with 99% original nickel. The action is accurate and strong, and the cylinder indexes and locks properly with no play. The bore of the 2 1/2-inch barrel is good with strong rifling throughout. The black hard-rubber grips are excellent and undamaged. SN 2407, excellent overall. History & Background Iver Johnson (1841-1895) was a Norwegian gunsmith who came from Bergen to America in 1863. He found work immediately at Ethan Allen's factory in Worcester, Mass. where he met Martin Bye. Johnson worked at Allen's through the civil war years, as demand for firearms was high, and work was plentiful. By 1871 Johnson and Bye had decided to venture out on their own and founded Johnson Bye & Co. in Worcester, moving to Fitchburg by 1891. In 1883 Martin Bye left the company, selling his interest to Iver. The company name was changed to its most famous form, "Iver Johnson's Arms & Cycle Works, Fitchburg, Mass.", a name it would retain until the outbreak of the First World War. Iver Johnson did not only produce a large variety of firearms, they were also famous for their excellent quality bicycles and motorcycles. The company would remain in business until 1993. The name was "revived" in 2006 and the brand is still used today.

Umarex AirJavelin Air Archery CO2 Rifle NEW $450
Please text anytime 6476871484. Brand new in original box. No PAL required . Umarex AirJavelin Air Archery Rifle comes with 2 adapters for 1 and 2 Co2 12g cartridges to use instead of 88gr CO2. 300 FPS 34 FPE 27 shots Powered by (1) 88gr CO2 or (2) 12gr or (1) 12gr  with adapters included. Straight-pull, bolt action cocking Integrated picatinny rail for optics and accessories Push button safety Will accept aftermarket quivers Fixed orange fiber optic front sight Adjustable rear sight Adjustable AR style buttstock M-Lok mounting slots on right and left sides of the rifle Includes 3 arrows Umarex introduces a new tool for small game hunting and recreational arrow shooting with the AirJavelin! Powered from a single 88 gram CO2 cartridge for up to 27 shots, the AirJavelin provides easy accuracy and enjoyment for the whole family. At under 4lbs without CO2 installed, the rifle is easy to manuever and thanks to an easy adjusting AR style buttstock, can be made to fit shooters of all sizes quickly. Sending 170 grain bolts at speeds up to 300 FPS, the AirJavelin produces energies of around 34 FPE at the muzzle. While this may not seem like a powerhouse, simply unthreading the field tip and screwing on a broadhead turns this rifle into a nightmare for small game! And because the arrow is propelled from the front, there is no "archers paradox" to concern yourself with, meaning your shots will find their mark time and time again. The AirJavelin has plenty of room for accessories. With a full length picatinny optics rail, you have space to mount the optic of your choice, with room to spare for lights and lasers. In addition, there are also M-Lok mounting slots on the right and left sides of the frame allowing for even more accessories, like a quiver or a bipod. The possibility are seemingly endless.
