Enjoy a Replica of a French Napoleon Flintlock Pistol

French Napoleon flintlock pistol, 19th century, replica

Decorative gun with mobile mechanism

– Not fireable –

Replica of a French flintlock pistol (called the Pistolet Modèle An XIII ), as issued to the troops of Emperor Napoleon I. These pistols, originally designed for cavalry, were also common in the navy and were used extensively by the French Army during the Napoleonic Wars. They were used until around 1840, when they were converted to percussion.

The stock of this muzzle-loading replica is made of synthetic resin (imitation wood). While the barrel, lock, ramrod, and trigger have a blued finish, all other metal fittings have an antique brass finish. The barrel is engraved with "Manufacture Imperiale ." This inscription is repeated in abbreviated form ( Mre Imp. ) on the lock plate and with "St. Etienne ," one of the most important French arms factories of the time.

This special version is decorated with some of the famous French emperor's most recognizable emblems: an eagle on the stock and the letter n inlaid into the handle, surrounded by a laurel wreath and topped by the imperial crown.

Our firearm replicas are for recreation and decoration purposes only. The gun's mechanics are fully movable, but this reproduction is not functional. The ramrod is permanently attached.

A beautiful addition to any collection and an essential accessory for the reenactor of this period.
