Daniel Muley Gunmaker



Daniel Muley

Gunmaker

Dublin

1785-1827


A Pair of Swan Neck Cocked, Half Stocked, Flintlock Duelling Pistols once owned by Thomas Letts. These details being inscribed to the brass plaque to the inner lid. In addition, they are complete with the registration licence dated 5th January 1844 detailing Thomas Letts as the owner on licence W-X 4603 & 4604 . Photography courtesy Jim Berry.




Licence issued to Thomas Letts on the 5th day of January 1844. The licence states he has two pistols. No other details are contained in the document regarding the gunmaker, bore size, ignition system etc..! This in itself was a loophole in the legislation.
