    Yes Patrick, the one on the pistol is a Frenchicon bolster of the same pattern and style that is in beautiful, unspoiled condition. The bolster on the musket in question is severely eroded by the mercuric primers of the day and was of a very different shape to begin with than that used by the French.

    I still vote for Austrian, but I can't find an example of one in better condition to post, sorry.
