Balkan ? Pistol.

Hi Rick,
Thanks for the interest. The pistol is 17 1/2 inches overall with a 10 1/2 inch barrel. I like the all steel construction with a little brass inlay, made for business. I've put a better photo of the lock plate on post No 2, do you think the 'serpent' detail is purely decorative or maybe a makers mark? It would seem to be in a rather obscure place for pure decoration i.e. only visible when the piece is cocked. Thanks again.
My Regards,
Norman.

P.S. It is in complete and original working condition.
