PISTOL:
The origin of the name pistol seems to be in doubt# Some writers clamm
the name was derived from the first pistols having been made at Pistoia, Italy;
others that the weapon was first carriedin the pommel, or "pistallo." Boutelle,
the British writer, claims the pistol derived its name from the fact that its
caliber corresponded with the diameter of the coin "Pistole"# Hie pistol
was common in Germany in 1512. (Bannerman Catalogue, 1922.)
