Royal Navy Issue Boarding Pistol from the British Empire dated between 1791 - 1795 on display at the Vancouver Maritime Museum in Canada
Explorers like Captain George Vancouver, who charted and claimed what is now British Columbia in Canada, were also officers in the Royal Navy. The ships and crews were armed and were ready and trained to use violence against Native peoples or rival empires.
Pistols with long barrels, like this one, were commonly used by seamen were as ones with shorter barrels were issued to officers officers. These pistols were cheaper than the ones produced for the army and were mainly use for close combat with a heavy handle which could be used as a bludgeoning weapon.

Painting of the Maritime Museum in progress! I'm keeping the grid on purpose to represent the unfinished tile work on the balcony of the building.

HMS Cornwallis model
Tumblr media
This contemporary ship model of HMS Cornwallis is located in the All Hands children's gallery at the National Maritime Museum Greenwich. I missed it the other times I went because I didn't think to look there.
Fitzjames served on the Cornwallis from 1841-1843 during the First Opium War in China. This ship model was made from the same wood that was used for the actual ship and made by the shipbuilder himself in 1813.
