A second Simeon North U.S. Model 1816 flintlock pistol, this one SKU AH5612, listed used among the antique handguns. The barrel wears a brown patina and the lock plate is the early pattern. The stock is very good with cartouches still present, and the wood edges on both sides stay sharp, which points to light use over its life. The supplier rates the overall condition as very fine for an 1816.

Compared with a typical 1816 that has seen hard service, the sharp stock edges and surviving cartouches are the details a Delaware collector will look at first. It is a flintlock martial pistol with no modern purpose beyond the collection and the display case. The transfer runs through a licensed dealer like any handgun here, and buyers aged 21 and over who hold a Delaware carry license can complete it without the purchaser permit.
