Miniature of General Washington pistol, 16cm

Miniature reproduction of a flintlock pistol, with a loading and firing simulator mechanism.
This flintlock pistol and artistically carved wood was manufactured in England by express order of George Washington (1732-1799), Commander in Chief of the Continental Army of the Revolutionary Forces in the American War of Independence (1775- 1783) and first President of the United States of America (1789-1797).
The United States War of Independence was a long conflict, which confronted the original Thirteen British Colonies in North America against the Kingdom of Great Britain for eight and a half years, ending with the British defeat in the battle of Yorktown and the signing of the Treaty of Paris. In view of this situation, the Americans were right to choose their commander in chief, George Washington, because of his temperament and ability, he was the ideal man for this type of campaign.
Relive one of the most important episodes in world history with the DENIX replica of this George Washington pistol.
