ACCESSORIES FOR SALE

 We normally stock a wide range of accessories including cases, individual lock mechanisms, all types of bullet mould, powder measures and tools.

JOSEPH MANTON TRADE LABEL £90.00

JOSEPH MANTON TRADE LABEL, SIZE 6.25" x 5.25"

This is a superb quality JOSEPH MANTON trade label when in business at Davies Street, Berkeley Square circa 1812-1819 as per Plate 194 of ‘British Gunmakers, Their Trade Cards, Cases and Equipment 1760-1860’ by W. Keith Neal & D.H.L. Back.  Excellent for a case or framing.


PRICE:   £90.00 including UK mainland delivery.


PLEASE NOTE. This is not a photocopy.  It is a copperplate label reproduced using the original intaglio printing process where a copperplate has been hand engraved in reverse by Cliff Wightwick, creating cuts in the plate. Thick ink is then packed into these cuts and transferred from the plate to appropriate paper with a press.  This original printing process results in slightly raised print especially where the engraved cuts are the thickest/deepest, thereby creating a label virtually indistinguishable from a period original.


WANTED.  We are looking to buy or borrow a good complete original H W Mortimer or H W Mortimer & Son trade label for making a copperplate.  Plate 211 or 216 of the book named above.  Best price paid.

UNIQUE CASE FOR A PAIR OF SCOTTISH PISTOLS £1,500.00

RARE ORIGINAL CASE FOR A PAIR OF SCOTTISH PISTOLS AND SCOTTISH DRESS CIRCA 1830-1837

This is a unique opportunity to acquire an empty case which once contained a Scottish Garniture of Highland Dress including a Pair of Scottish pistols, Dirk, Sgian Dubh, Buckles, Badges, Plaid Brooch, Powder Flask,  etc.


The lock is marked Crown over WR, the date mark of William IV which dates this case accurately from 1830-1837. 

The case is covered in Maroon leather with a pull out tray revealing space under for Sporran, Kilt etc (or Pipes). Some renovation is required but overall good condition and velvet close fitted lining is in particularly good condition for its age requiring just minor attention. Leather to underside is worn at edges. Superb Patina overall. Lock is complete but requires attention.


The date of 1830 makes this case suitable for a pair of Rams Horn Pistols, either late Flintlock or Percussion of Scottish Presentation or Dress type.  Scottish Pistols were still in high demand during this Regency Period with memories of the Pageant that was organised by Sir Walter Scott in 1822 when he organised the visit of George IV to Scotland. 


The shape of the badge section narrows the original contents to a Scottish regiment with that shape of badge - Scots Guards, Royal Scots or Highland Light Infantry.   

External Dimensions 22.5" x 14.25" x 5.5"

Internal tray 21.5" x 13.25" x 2.25"

Internal base compartment under lift out tray 21.5" x 13.25" x 1.25"

Dirk fitted compartment 18.5"

Pistols length including rams horn pricker section 11.75" - will take 6" or 7" barrel depending upon flintlock or percussion

 Pistols compartment is recessed to take belt hooks.


PRICE   £1,500.00   including UK mainland delivery

ADAMS REVOLVING RIFLE CASE £895.00

A RARE AND LONG OAK CASE FOR AN ADAMS REVOLVING RIFLE (OR SIMILAR) WITH ORIGINAL ADAMS LABEL

Oak with brass corners, original central lock and escutcheon with sliding locks to left and right front, all complete. Central circular brass escutcheon to lid. Original Adams label to case lid. Original baize but will obviously need re-fitting. Good condition.


This case will take the longest barrel that Adams produced of 30". However, a shorter barrel Adams or similar could be fitted together with a lidded compartment to utilise the case length.

US CIVIL WAR ERA MULTI GANG BULLET MOULD £475.00

Mid 19th Century US Civil War era Multi Gang Bullet Mould for Buckshot, Scattergun, Blunderbuss

MID 19TH CENTURY US CIVIL WAR ERA MULTI GANG BULLET MOULD FOR BUCKSHOT, SCATTERGUN, BLUNDERBUSS

Rare large and heavy multi gang bullet mould dating from mid 19th Century as the only other example I have seen was offered in the USA and described as a US Civil War Buckshot Mould due to the makers name being traced to that period. It may date earlier when wooden handles were first used as the metal and wood has a very old patina. This mould could have been used for making 'Buckshot' type of balls or any type of Scattergun including Blunderbuss. A previous example of this type sold at auction in the UK was described as a ball mould for Blunderbuss on Royal Mail Coaches but that may be speculation as I can find no definitive reference. It is not marked with a makers name. 15.5" long with wooden handles and locking mechanism enabling a pin to be put through the hasp and keep the mould tightly shut whilst in use. There are 43 cavities of  .25" diameter and around the same number of smaller shot of around 0.1". A rare addition for the collector of bullet moulds. 


PRICE   £475.00   including UK mainland delivery
