Warpath Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 BAILLOT et HEBERARD Presentation Duelling Pistols from Minister of War and Marshal of France Randon Interesting fine quality pair of pistols with a plaque engraved: "ECOLE IMPERIALE de CAVALERIE Donne Par Mr Le Mal Randon MINISTRE de la GUERRE" If I have this translated correctly it appears to have been a presentation from Mr. Randon to the Cavalry School...I hope a French speaking member will correct me if I am wrong.

Warpath Posted December 25, 2012 Author Share Posted December 25, 2012 (edited) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacques_Louis_Randon While not military issue I thought the connection between the Cavalry School and The Minister of War should be sufficient to share here...I will post photos of the pistols later if anyone would like to see them closer...Both have repairs to the ebony grips, but the pistols remain in fine condition overall.
