Alvin White Pistol

Handmade Alvin Flintlock Pistol, marked "AAW" to top barrel flat, .31 cal., 8 1/2" lightly engraved octagon barrel, case hardened frame, cock, frizzen and spring; brass triggerguard and pommel cap, with nickle silver escutcheons. Extremely well made and very similar to firearm photographed with Mr. White in the 1980's. Condition is excellent as is the craftsmanship.

Alvin White was a contract engraver for Colt.  Quite well known in the East.

Sold for $3,000.00 plus buyers premium.
