C1800 English ‘London To Bristol’ Route Mail Coach Guard’s Brass Barrelled Flintlock Coaching Blunderbuss Retailed By Clarke (London). Sn 22213 - 22213
When an English public postal service was first introduced in 1635, letters were carried between ‘posts’ by mounted post-boys and delivered to the local postmaster. The postmaster would then take out the letters for his area and hand the rest to another post-boy to carry them on to the next ‘post’. This was a slow process and the post-boys were an easy target for robbers, but the system remained unchanged for almost 150 years. John Palmer, a theatre owner from Bath, had organised a rapid carriage service to transport actors and props between theatres and he believed that a similar scheme could improve the postal service. In 1782, Palmer sold his theatre interests, and went to London to lobby. The Post Office. Despite resistance from senior Post Office staff, who believed the speed of the mail could not be improved, William Pitt, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, accepted the idea. An experimental mail coach journey, undertaken at Palmer’s expense, started from Bristol on 2 August 1784, at 4pm. It reached London at 8am the next day, exactly on schedule. A journey from Bristol to London that had taken up to 38 hours now took just 16. Richard Clake 1st listed as Hardware man, then Goldsmith & Jeweller at 62 Cheapside from 1797 to 1829, retailed guns with his name and address later marked guns Clarke & Son (Howard L.

SOLD SOLD (12/11) German, 1859 Dated, 15.4mm Dreyse Model M/54 Pinenbuchse (Pike Rifle) Needle Fire Obsolete Calibre Rifle & integral Rod Bayonet. Sn - 22167
This is a rare, matching numbers, German Dreyse Model M/54 Pinenbuchse (Pike Rifle) needle fire breech loading rifle. This was the first breech loading rifle to use a bolt action to open and close the barrels chamber. The action was invented in 1836 by the German gunsmith Johann Nikolaus von Dreyse who had been conducting numerous designs since 1824. The rifle used a combustible cartridge consisting of the paper case, an acorn shaped bullet with a primer (percussion cap) attached to its base, and the black powder charge. The Dreyse series of rifles was introduced with the Model M/41 and had various modifications throughout its service life. This is an excellent example of the Dreyse M/54 needle fire rifle manufactured in 1859 and was used as the main infantry weapon of the Prussians in the Wars of German Unification. The rifle stamped with matching numbers. The rear of the breech is stamped 1859 (date) and the front 6318 (serial number) I.M.D. 208 9168 and proof marks. The barrel carries the serial number 6318 and proof marks under the 5 leaf rear sight. The barrel bands carry the matching numbers 6318, 18 & 18. The bolt is stamped 6318 (serial number) underneath with the bolt head stamped 18. The rifle has a retractable steel triangular rod bayonet that retracts into the stock and is secured by a steel spring bracket. The clean 4 groove barrel has the normal staining and residue due to firing and the woodwork has the usual knocks and bumps with service use. NB.

Strathspey Fencibles Pike Number 119 to the Grant or Strathspey Fencibles (1793) Sn - 22159
The Grant or Strathspey Fencibles were raised when Sir James Grant of Castle Grant at Granttown of Spey, having offered to raise a regiment, he obtained permission to do so, and two months after the declaration of war by France in 1873 and the threat of invasion. The Regiment was called the 1st Stathspey Fencibles and was assembled at Forres in the end of April, 1793 consisting mostly of Highlanders. On 5 June it was embodied and inspected by Lieutenant-general Alexander Leslie, marched to the southward in August, and quartered successively in most of the towns in the south of Scotland. Unlike pole arms of the time, naval boarding pikes were made with no cross guard or ferrules, as these would get caught in the rigging or nets of a vessel. This is one of the 1st Strathspey Fencibles pikes and measures 94 inches long. The pike consists of a wooden shaft with an iron tapered and pointed square section to the top. The iron pike measures 18 inches in length with a spear point of 8 1/82 inches and two straps 9 ½ inches long which retain it to the shaft by three screws riveted over onto the straps. The top of the shaft near the pike is lettered in gold No. 119 STRATHSPEY. The pike is in excellent condition with no worm to the wood. Delivery is to the U.K. Mainland by arrangement and at cost.

SOLD SOLD *1919* The BSA Standard Transitional/Light Pattern No1 ‘L Prefix’ .177 Air Rifle. 22252. - 22252
BSA never actually referred to the first air rifle they advertised after WWI as the ‘1919 Model’. This designation is taken from the sole year of manufacture and is used in this work to describe a transitional model between the pre and post WWI Light Pattern air rifles. The 1919 Model provides a link between the last of the pre–WWI BSA Light Pattern air rifles, and for that reason is worthy of study. All serial numbers were prefixed with ‘L’ and this gives the collector a clue to the age. Therefore, a Standard Light Pattern prefixed with ‘L’ would have to have been made from 1919 to 1935. This model is stamped ‘L 842’ which makes it an early 1919 model. It has the correct 2-hole trigger block and is clearly etched to the top of the cylinder ‘THE BAS AIR RIFLE (Improved Model D) THE BIRMINGHAM SMALL ARMS Co Ltd ENGLAND-SOLE MANUFACTURER’. The original metalwork retains much of its blueing. The chequered wooden stock is in very nice condition with only minor age-related marks. A very nice example of a collectible rifle. See chapter 15 of The Book of the BSA Air Rifle 1905-1939 by John Milewski for reference (available on our site). The weapon cocks loads and shoots as it should, firing at 8.01 ft/lbs. The price for this rare air rifle includes UK delivery. 22252.
