Matching John Armstrong Pistols (2000)
That New Jersey customer really challenged me back in 1995 - to make a pair of "silver" Armstrong pistols - but one had to be a left-hand pistol, and the other a right-hand pistol! In other words - mirror images. Bill Kennedy supplied the barrels, butt caps and trigger guards. I modified the small Siler lock and hand-made the matching left-hand lock. I also made its box, powder horn and tools.
