When the Pedersoli ML double rifles retail for $ 800 this should be a fairly inexpensive "howdah" pistol to buy. I can see the experts here are not impressed with the design and its lack of attention to authentic howdah pistols - perhaps, we need to look at this as what it is: a cheap interpretation of a howdah pistol from Pedersoli, one that could be shot and abused as the owner pleases without any worry about damaging a valuable old gun.

Even as a learner and happy non expert, I can see the point in buying one if someone has a 50 Pedersoli double ML though the other calibre selections do seem to be weird. I'll check with Cabelas when they would have these out. It might be fun to have one of them even if they are not an authentic design.

Good hunting, everyone!
