			On a more academic note here is how the stocks of these pistols are believed  to have been  constructed . Research from the Farmers Museum co-operative  Cooperstown . New York .A complex forging operation starting from a flat sheet . Note the visible brazing where the horns are attached . A  seam should be visible on the underside of  the stock.
