[Source] The Coronet Arms dueling pistol was a powerful, single-shot blaster pistol typically sold in pairs. They were high-quality pistols designed to be used in a honor duel. They were useless at any great distance, but at the short distances employed in a duel, they were incredibly accurate weapons. Their power pack fired a single shot—all that was allowed in a duel—which was almost always lethal.

A comparable pair of such pistols had been used in a duel which had killed Alexander Hamilton. (TOS: "The Squire of Gothos" ) The Belgian made dueling pistols are of the French style, and were usually offered as either flintlock or percussion capped firearms. These were retrofitted as rolling block actions, i.e. breach load single shot. The slabs on the side of the wood where the lock mechanism (the hammer, pan and frizzen for flintlocks, or nipple for percussion cap) would be, are noticeably blank, and the rolling block mechanism can be seen directly behind the barrel. They were provided to the show by Ellis Mercantile and were chambered in .38 short cartridge. (thanks to GM45 & PhoenixEnt) [1]
