Bergmann 1897 7.8mm No 5 self-loading pistol and combined holster/shoulder stock – £10,500 at Thomas Del Mar.
Treuille 9mm 1854 pin-fire rifled pistol – £7800.
The same French collection that brought the fine pair of Boutet pistols to the Thomas Del Mar Sale on December 6 also included a number of later Continental pistols that were rare and certainly unfamiliar to most British collectors.
