Most early mountain men, trappers and traders proudly carried single-barreled pistols as their weapon of choice. These pistols proved to be extremely reliable. That same reliability was essential for a trapper who might have to stake his life on his pistol’s ability to provide a backup shot in what could be a dire situation.

The Traditions™ Trapper pistol’s primitive-style adjustable rear sight, octagonal barrel, and double-set triggers capable of firing set or unset, allows the shooter to predictably put his shots on target. This Traditions pistol is a .50 caliber percussion model, which has a 9.75" blued barrel. The Trapper™ is 15.5" in length and comes with a select hardwood stock.
