I am Brittas boyfriend, for being german, i have nearly no expierience with firearms. Those flintlock pistols are not as relayable than modern vestpocket ( mouse) pistols. Also, you have to draw the pistols out of your pockets, they are no belt or saddlepistols, so the hammer can hang in your cloth. And before you draw the pistol, you have to notice the attack, surprise attacks are even today a problem for trained persons with modern pistols and holsters. In those days the owner oft such a pistol would have been at least good middle class, so such a man also would carry cane or perhaps before 1800 also smallsword.

My first thought was "How's that sight gonna hold zero" but then nvm

Talking of keeping the quality of the content high, my word is this high quality content! What an excellent presentation of this fascinating little pistols.

Awesome set of flintlock pistols, thank you for sharing the history as well.

Finally i found a YT channel who discuss about old weapons, thank you Capandball for demostrate this gun, what a beautiful pistol 😍, this is the correct youtube channel for me :)

Great video, well in keeping with the high standards of historical accuracy, detailed information, and and professional delivery which have ever been the hallmarks of your channel.

What a great set of history to own. This video was very interesting! Thanks for all the lessons you provide.

There are many BP channels on youtube but I enjoy yours the most. Always done with European elegance.

Minute of belly button was and still is the requirement for defensive handgun. Thank you for bring those beautiful (at least to my eyes) pieces of history for us to enjoy sir!

Excellent and highly interesting presentation as always! Thank you!

I thoroughly enjoy CapandBall channel. Excellent demonstrations, fun shooting, and good times. Thank you, from Irvine California.

Another great video. Your videos helped inspire me to buy my first flintlock rifle (just a Traditions Deluxe Kentucky rifle) as well as to sign up as a volunteer hunters education instructor here in West Virginia. Keep up the great work.

Great video as always - my firearms interest is WWI/II but I still enjoy watching other eras of guns. And I would also like to add, good sir, your English is impeccable. Thanks

The 44 marking is the UK calibre. Its marked on the barrels and mould so that you don't mix up different sizes of shot, and load an oversized bullet by mistake. (Mark, UK Museum Curator).

Another great video Mr. Németh, thank you.

I'm glad to see content from you. Keep up the good work.

He's back!

Great pieces. Absolutely beautiful. Thanks for sharing

Great video. Interesting pistols. Thank you Cap and Ball!

Beautiful, thank you for the video.

Love your channel. But i have to tell you that in the US growing up I was around some very shady/bad people. Some of them were drug dealers in the 1980s who sold and indulged in cocaine. What I always remember about them is that they wore around their necks on a silver chain were either a small spoon (to use to sniff the drug) or a razor blade (to use to cut up the drug). Seeing your necklace makes me laugh, but looks great on you also! Keep up the EXCELLENT content!

I think it is a dogtag, used in the military to identify you if you are dead.

I have one a little smaller than that, marked Liege. It has a cute little brass or bronze "cannon" style barrel and what looks like ebony for the wood grips. Watching you fire these has inspired me to put my little "muff pistol" into working order. Thanks!

Your video quality is always outstanding

LOVE IT!......As always, a wonderful presentation!

Another excellent presentation from Dr. Németh.

Excellent as always!

As always excellent and interesting videos a pleasure to watch thank you

Thanks for your upload of this lovely little pair of black powder pistols

Another good one from the Hungarian Historian! Keep it up please.

These two beautiful pistols and box are simply Sweet! I’m always fascinated and very impressed by the creativity, craftsmanship and art. I could hardly wait to see you prepare and shoot these pistols. Thank You So Much and Many Blessings! And keep loading your powder to share with us! DaveyJO in Pennsylvania

Wow. One of your best videos yet. Hello from Columbia, SC USA.

Excellent video ! Thanks for showing us an up close visual of the loading process including that last step of tightening the barrel with the tool. They look gorgeous and little pistols like this are always interesting to me no matter which era they are from. Whether they are tiny boxlocks like these or small semi auto .25 acps its all interesting from my point of view

These box locks are substantially more powerful than a 25 though. These are probably at least as powerful as a 380

Very interesting and educational, many thanks. Nice pistols.

As always great video!

That is a fantastic set of pistols!

It took me quite awhile to completely figure out the best way for me to conceal carry my HK P2000 (spring/summer) and HK USP45C (fall/winter). I can’t imagine trying to sort out a way to conceal carry your Boston pistols especially with the greater complexity of men’s clothing 250 years ago. Great video!

What a beaut . Numbered set 44 . Very cool . It's a set that you can only rent for a short time of your life and if your lucky , a child will share the same passion . And take them on . Because , they need to get out and be used periodically . Very jealous . But thank you for the video . Very cool .

Excellent video, I foolishly sold a brass boxlock London made Flintlock pistol a while ago. I made a good profit but now regret selling it. Looking for a percussion replacement now.

Would love to have a brace of pistols like those. Color me jealous.

VERY NICE - THANKS !

Sold two repros like that and my brother has an original London made one. Love the cute little bullet mold.

Thank you

Wonderful, entertaining video. Before the invention of antibiotics, a hit in the body cavity was almost always fatal...eventually. Ever from a tiny under-powered pistol the threat of death was quite real.

Inrange and cap n ball posting blackpowder content on the same day. I feel like I'm being spoiled.

So many shots and no missfire, that tiny guns are in a great condition.

Great video... I love Queen Anne style pistols.. I have a 50 caliber I Queen Anne pistol. Replica.. I am looking for a box lock pocket pistol next. Like I said great work 👍👍

What a lovely set of pistols kinda off subject but your tools are quite lovely as well I use you powder measurer for my muzzle loading Kentucky Rifle when I hunt deer

Now this is a great thing... I wish I could buy one...

As part of my flintlock cleaning , I usually push an oily pipe cleaner down the touch hole to keep the ignition channel clear then dry it. One more insurance against a hang or misfire.

Good video ! I didn't know that a 18th century pistol like this was slower to reload than a balestrino crossbow of the same size...

I own 2 brothers to yours in percussion and plain with no engraving from Pedersoli . One of them I bought . The other I built from a kit . The one I built had a rifled barrel , the one I bought was smooth bore .

Ez nagyon kis tetszetős működés közben is :-D

An interesting loading procedure. No ram rod to drop and lose.

I would think these are a pair of dueling pistols, given the age, box and accouterments. Very well made and presented never the less.

@andrewgates8158

Pretty small for dueling.

Yes, yes yes yes yes! Keep this kind of video coming! I have one of these by ‘Nock’ with Birmingham proofs. Always wanted to see one in action, you made my dream come true. You’re a good man! Interesting to note the ball is oversized to bore, could you elaborate on this please? Usually they are bang on bore size, or patched (and therefore twice patch thickness below bore diameter). Either way, they still stay in place if held barrel down. We have different laws regarding these in the UK, if I were to imply I’d fire the thing, I’d have to have it on a FAC. But I can own one as an antique, curiosity or as part of a larger collection without an FAC. Just holding this type of pistol and presenting it to an imagined foe really takes you back 200 years. They just ooze class at every turn. The box is so well filed together you can’t even see the joins we’re vertical meets horizontal. Next step, a nice English Precusion belt pistol in .50” a slightly later ‘conceal carry’ a little less prone to misfiring! Thanks for posting! Watch all your videos anyway, but this really made my day!

Those threads on the breach look amazing! I didn't think that they had that sort of technology in the 18th century. Were they re-threaded?

You Sir an honorary Texas citizen.

The original Boston is in Lincolnshire England. Interestingly the Mayflower set sail from Boston before it left Plymouth. New York is just down the road from Boston.

A bore diameter of 11.2 mm is almost exactly .44 caliber - the number stamped on the tools. Maybe those numbers refer to the caliber rather than the serial number? Just a thought...

To hit that well at about 12 feet or 13 feet distance which is how much roughly 5 meters is from those smoothbore tiny flintlock pieces is doing very well. I used to have a pederdoli percussion .45 derringer and I had to be 2 meters away from the target to be able to hit decently

You talking about antique firearms with your voice is like music to melt ears and very relaxing LOL 😂😂 Also, where can I find reproduction kits for these if they even exist? Is it something I'll either have to buy an original or build one myself?

Oh by the way nice video.

I have one of these antiques but it is not in firing condition. Cool vid.

very nice pistols congratulations ! have you taken the pistols apart in the box lock if possible ?

Reminds me of the 'Han shot first' scene. The amount of fire and smoke feels appropriate.

Wow. Amazing content. Greetings from Luxemburg to Hungary! Are you using brunox on semi autos as well?
