Kurisu of the Hellfire

A percussion muzzle loading pistol kit.

I can not make this up

It's evidently never been completed, and I never intend to fire it, i nfact I'm not sure it was ever meant to function, but it's evidently past it's prime, but, here it is.

Thanks. I might polish it up and finish it, since I found I can pop out the barrel assembly.

Just five dollars. Some of the parts are slightly rusted and tarnished, so I might fix it up a little.

Weill do. My dad was excited by the find too, so I'll have help more than likely. Or he'll at least help me repair the striking arm.

Indeed. one idea I had was if we can get the hammer to move again maybe one cog possibly loose around the base of it and one loosk one on a screw that can turn with it.

Me too. I'm looking out for possibly useful items.

I've decorated my whole apartment that way. I thought my mother was going to faint when I picked up a bag that had been the packaging for a king sized comforter, refilled with full length drapes and fabric in the colors I wanted, for a grand total of five dollars.
