Floberts are low-calibre pistols that can be easily converted to fire live ammunition. Gun shops in Slovakia, which before were selling deactivated firearms, are now flogging Floberts, given the glaring loophole in the EU directive.It turned out to be an early 22 cal Flobert Belgium rolling block Parlor Rifle, with 22" barrel. The stock is in poor condition, has the butt plate intact, but overall the stock is restorable, with only a small amount of wood along one side missing close to the action. The barrel has a little rust, but both sights intact.This 9mm Flobert round is a curious little thing with its brass shell casing and rimfire primer, considering that it’s a shotshell and all. If you would use a No. 3 Bore shotgun to secure your garden from serious threats to its lettuce and green beans, this is the ammo for you.
