Armaments

The following photos are of a number of arms that bear the de Büren family crest. A pair of dueling pistols as well a two different blunderbusses. The dueling pistols were made by Johann Jacob Kuchenreuter (1709-1783), the blunderbusses however carry no perceptible markings. The blunderbusses were surely used at one point, the dueling pistols I cannot say.
