This pistol takes again the aesthetics and part of the system with tilting barrel and loading with the thunder developed by Pauly, of which Casimir Lefaucheux had been the workman at the beginning of his career.
With the repurchase of the House Pauly in 1827, it also becomes owner of the patents of Pauly and its successors, Roux and Pichereau.
