Most of the early mountain men and traders carried a single-barreled pistol that was popular for years. This .50 caliber Trapper Pistol had proved itself reliable, and that was of great importance to a trapper who might have to stake his life on a pistol's ability to provide a backup shot in what could be a desperate situation. The Trapper Pistol's primitive-style adjustable rear sight, octagonal barrel and double-set triggers, capable of firing set or unset, allow you to predictably put your shots on target. It has a 9-3/4" blued octagon barrel with a select hardwood stock. .50 caliber. Barrel: 9-3/4" blued. Overall length: 15-1/2". Weight: 2 lbs., 14 ounces.

Trapper,September 30, 2009
By ElijahGatesfrom B. Tenney Fulton Mo.
"Shot this pistol using .50 sabots shooting .45 cal. 185 gr. hollow points . For powder I shot two pyrodex pellets 30 gr. each. I 'm surprised how well it shoots with this load and not much recoil. I plan on taking it hunting."

Another great shooting piece from Cabelas,July 29, 2009
By DaithiWyofrom Buffalo, WY
"Most of my black powere weapons are from Cabelas and they have all been well worth the money, TheItalians are great gun manufacturers. Out on the range here in Wyoming, we get some great shooting done. Back east in Virginia, where I had to keep a loaded piece with me when I walked the dogs or just went walking, I felt quite secure from muggings and attempted pet theft, with my black powder pistols. They scared plenty of urban thugs away."

Amazing accuracy,April 22, 2009
By dbt1949from Hogeye arkansas
"This is my first single shot muzzle loader pistol. Using the recommended powder charge and a round ball I was able to sit from 25 yards away and get a shot group of a old fashioned silver dollar. Extremely powerful too as it would easily go right through a 2X4 and send splinters everywhere. Quick loading and easy to fire. A beautiful piece to display on your mantel when you're not using it. Highly recommended."

lacking kit,February 16, 2009
By kb7utvfrom Las Vegas, NV
"The pistol is fine but there is no starter kit available for it. It is hard to get the items together at a resonable price. You have them for most other pistols but not this one. Your instructions should also include information such as the size cap to use on it and a few more details."
