Antique Firearms
The two pistols are definitely wheellock mechanisms. The fact that neither pistol is equipped with a front blade sight leads me to believe that the pair were included in a cased set of dueling pistols. The long arm is not familiar to me. The wooden stock and the firing mechanism are unusual in configuration. I welcome any suggestions as to place of origin and date of manufacture.
