2-3/8"  OAL, This 2mm pinfire Muff pistol is based on a design I've long wanted to make.

I first made a brass prototype,  it was then hand engraved with deep cut recesses. Then a mold was made and waxes pulled, which were then cast in brass. 




Left: This photo gives a better indication of the color of the unplated Brass version.

 













Left: the original Italian Percussion muff pistol which was the inspiration for my version. 

Due to the lack of mini percussion caps, I decided to make mine fire 2mm pinfire cartridges, which although getting expensive are still available.
