Title: William Antes pistol reference info needed
Post by: Tom Currie on July 30, 2015, 11:52:43 PM

Guys, In the KRA Moravain book there are pictures of a Antes pistol and in reading the article Steve Hench notes there are 2 more European styled Antes signed pistols known that are published elsewhere.

Does anyone know where they are published or have pics that are able to share ?

I picked up pistol barrel at Dixon's and am having fun just puting some ideas together.

Thanks.

Thoughts on the American flintlock pistol by S.E.Dyke has one picture of a signed Antes pistol.
Another Antes pistol is shown a little better in Battle weapons of the American Revolution by George Neumann.
Hope this helps,
Herman
