More on that Pistol Stock Design.
Searching for more information on the pistol that I purchased, I have been concentrating on the design of the stock. Here are another two stocks of the same design as mine both dating early to mid 18th century.
My Pistol, no date and no identification markings.
This one dated 1750.
This one dated 1730. National Maritime Museum London.

New Link
I have just added a new link to the blogroll. This should be of interest to those reinactors interested in things martime. The site is "Bonaventure" Reinacting Maritime History from 1560 to 1660. The site also hosts the UK re-enactment webring, the 17th century site webring and the history ring. This would be a good place to visit if you are trying to get an idea of what groups and resources are out there. Good hunting.
