About the Item
WWII International Flare Signal Co. Flare Pistol. Great tabletop object. Super heavy. Likely still functional if you can find the flares. Break open operation, featuring steel, brass, and nickel construction. The pistol is embossed on both sides of the crosshatch grip in raised letters: INTERNATIONAL FLARE SIGNAL CO. / TIPPECANCE CITY OHIO.
Great vintage condition with few blemishes. Gun cocks, hammers locks back and firing pin fires. A lifesaver if you were ever in a wreck or emergency back in the day. Fun piece of history that has likely seen some interesting events.
Available at our Los Angeles showroom.
