The Officer's Pistol was an 18th century double-barrel pistol which, at the time of the French Revolution, boasted greater firepower than average flintlock pistols and was issued to military officers.

Description[edit | edit source]

The Officer's Pistol was one of many models of double-barrel pistols which sought to solve the single shot limitation of flintlock pistols by incorporating an additional barrel. Accordingly, the Officer's Pistol could fire two shots before reloading. While not an overall powerful pistol compared to other contemporary models, it was nevertheless superior to average flintlock pistols.[1]

History[edit | edit source]

During the French Revolution, the Officer's Pistol was common throughout Paris and was serviced to officers of the French Army.[1] The French Assassin Brasseur carried one, which was taken by the Roi des Thunes as a trophy after murdering the Assassin. When Arno Dorian killed the Roi de Thunes, he recovered the pistol[2] and kept it at the insistence of Brasseur's mentor, Guillaume Beylier, as a way to honor his fallen Brother.[3]
