The perfect weapon for anyone who wants to experience what it was like to fire the oldest firearms and isn't interested in the caplock guns that dominate the black powder firearm market.
A classic black powder pistol featuring two .50 caliber barrels, modeled after firearms used by British officers in 19th-century India. Renowned for its reliability and efficiency at short ranges, this pistol was a preferred choice for British army officers during hunting expeditions.
The Howdah Hunter comes with .50 caliber barrels that are 11 1/4 inches long. Its locks are surface-hardened for enhanced durability. Detailed engravings depicting wild animals in their natural habitat adorn the metalwork. The handgun is outfitted with two single-action, independent triggers. Sighting is facilitated by a brass front sight and a fixed rear sight.
Constructed from walnut wood, the stock features a pistol grip that is partially checkered to improve handling, while the butt is fitted with a metal counterweight for optimal balance and comfort. A loading lever is conveniently located beneath the barrels.
