The Golden Flintlock Pistols, also known as Edward's Pistols,[1] were the personal firearms of the pirate-Assassin Edward Kenway.
History
The Dutch merchant Milo van der Graaff rewarded Edward with these pistols after he completed all of Milo's naval contracts in the West Indies.[2] Decades later during the Seven Years' War, the pistols passed into the hands of the Templar Shay Cormac.[1]
