Description:
Introduced in the 1796 and in widespread production by 1802, the New land Cavalry Pistol provide one model of pistol for all of Britain's cavalry and units such as the Royal Horse Artillery. Initially it started out with a rounded brass butt but this soon gave way to a flat butt with ring. The ring allow the pistol to be attached to the cavalryman's equipment and not be lost in the heat of battle. Another new element was the swivel ramrod which greatly improved the process of loading the pistol on horseback.
