| When the Pocket Model arrived on the scene, the closest tactically equivalent small handgun was the Allen pepperbox. |
|
| The adoption of percussion ignition in the 1830s allowed the design of more-complex repeating pistols, notably the pepperbox and the revolver. |
|
| It acts in my opinion of a pepperbox of transition with barrel to eight sides and cylinder to 6 blows. |
|
| The pepperbox is of type with pin comprising six rooms for the cartridge 7 mm pinfire. |
|
| The whole of this pepperbox nicely is assembled and finished, all the weapon polished and is engraved with sheets, rinceaux and lianas. |
|
| This firing is done by a lower firing pin actuated by a ring, like in the MARIETTE pepperbox. |
|
| Single barrel pistols led to double barreled pistols and by around 1837 production began of a long series of pepperbox models. |
|
| They were in gauge 11 mm, the trigger out of ring like the pepperbox. |
|
| Pretty small pepperbox pinfire 6 shots calibre 7mm. |
|
| A very pretty pepperbox, pin fire pistol of an unknown calibre. |
|
| This is a nice pepperbox made of a beautiful Damascus steel with 4 screwed-in barrels and with the ignition area protected by an anti-spitting shield. |
|
| This pepperbox with 6 shots is of a rather traditional aspect, if it is not the system of deposit of the block-barrels by a system of lever in L fixed using a pin along the side of left carcass. |
