This gun combines everything i love. The obsolescence of the 14 bore, the imperfection of the pinfire, the experimentation in gunmaking at the time, and the pace of change ( I have also seen Flintlock dual ignition percussion guns )

A fantastic gun, thanks for sharing - Very interesting.

So, there is an actually 1882 patent, filed by Ignác Wangler? Considering the unabated substitution of I. & J. would Ignác Wangler have been abbreviated J.(Ignác) Wangler instead of Jan Wangler, even though the city is not proper?

Interesting to see that Ignác Wangler z Kutné Hory continued the use of the technology of his father.

The Puškar' on top rib seems to read J. Burda in Prag?

Thanks for all the info Raimey. It sure would be neat to get an article published for this gun.
