Percussion pistol kit question

Recommended Posts

I have a pair of percussion pistols that my father bought years ago, I believe it was in the 80’s or so and he told me a while back that they were some kit that you used to be able to order?? they have no markings whatsoever so I don’t know who the manufacturer is. If anyone has any info I would really appreciate it.

These are .22 caliber "Parlor Pistols" designed to be shot inside your living room.  They came in a boxed set of 2.  A novelty piece, without rifling (in other words a smooth bore), and were popular in the mid-late 1800's.  Take #11 percussion caps I believe and use very few grains of BLACK POWDER.

Sorry I'm late to the party---I've been a little busy lately, lol!
