A terrifying arsenal? Oh my. From left to right:

1. An “English Bulldog” revolver

2. I have no idea. Might be a starter pistol.

3. The rusty wreckage of an Adams revolver.

4. A percussion boot pistol.

5. A Spanish-made non-firing Colt SAA replica. The cylinder cuts are a dead giveaway.

6. An I-don’t-what-the-heck-that-is. Perhaps a pistol-like thing hacked down from a Flobert rifle.

7. A percussion pepperbox revolver.

Truly, a terrifying collection — for the shooter, if any fool ever tried to load and fire one of them.

Let me amend that. #6 was most likely a Purdey rook rifle, before some numbskull took a hacksaw to it and made it a “handgun.” A pity, that. Unmolested, it would be worth a small fortune. Now it’s just junk.
