Hello From Florida

I am photographing and researching Spanish pistols from the 16th, 17th and 18th century. I have only two books to work with, Dr. Lavin's "A History of Spanish Firearms", published in1965, and Keith Neal's "Spanish Guns and Pistols", published in 1955. I know there is a lot of new information on makers and their marks.

While I am working on images I sometimes upload them to my Google Plus account. I would post the address, but the forum won't let me.

Best Regards,
Dana Williams

It is a little hard to use the translator on this site, but not impossible.
