Hi All,

I am looking for an overall length for this rather lovely combination matchlock and hammer and if anyone has any pictures of it that would also be very helpful. It is located in Florence and is dated circa 1550 and that is all I know.

I found these pictures in Armi Bianchi Italiene

Many thanks

Tod

The lengths are listed in the back of the book. I'm not at home right now and can hopefully remember to look them up later for you. I believe you have the book, though?

Hi Tod,
If it's not too much trouble, would you mind sharing the length with those of us who don't have the book? You've got me all curious now.
Thanks!
