The Davide Pedersoli Howdah delivers dual-caliber versatility in a compact platform, chambered for both .45 Colt and .410 gauge shells. This reproduction of the classic British colonial sidearm combines traditional craftsmanship with modern safety features for collectors and enthusiasts seeking authentic historical firearms.
What Makes This Different
Unlike modern pistols limited to single calibers, the Howdah's dual-chamber design accepts both .45 Colt cartridges and .410 gauge shotshells interchangeably. The 10.25-inch rifled barrel provides superior accuracy with .45 Colt loads while maintaining effective shot patterns with .410 shells. Italian craftsmanship from Pedersoli ensures period-correct details with contemporary manufacturing precision that mass-produced replicas cannot match.Key Features
