Some really interesting replies here, I think judging by the answers there is no good 'Culloden' period replicas out there that were Scottish made. I think the Derbyshire arms one is close but really reflects a post Culloden pistol. What I was really after was similar to the below:
I'm guessing there is little demand for them otherwise a manufacturer would be jumping on them to make repros!
I may try engraving the DA one (I've ordered it), to make it look a bit more pre Culloden period!
So would a dremmel with diamond engraving bit work on this pistol!?
Somone mentioned that they were all 'blued' and virtually non exist with the blueing today - is this correct, would they blue a pistol that was engraved as it would hide most of the engraving i.e. all blued!?
