COVER<br />
Flint lock pistols of Augustus 11, King of Poland, are ITteraIly worth a king's ransom.<br />
While selling parts of his native Saxony to finance his wars, Augustus, one of the<br />
"Kings Who Were Gun Collectors," paid a big fee to gunmaker J. C. Stockmar for<br />
these heavily cawed and gold inlaid pistols. The pair was later sold to an English<br />
collector in 1870 for 2,300 francs-comparabl'e to as many dollars today.<br />
