That pistol looks very much like the pic of a repro LePage Dueling Pistol, DGW used to sell @ $259 (finished) in my 1993 DGW catalog.

DGW's description (in part) was: 10" octagon .45 cal bbl, w/12 lands/grooves, set trigger w/adj screw, finger rest TG, European walnut stock w/French-style vertical ribbing on grip, 16" LOA, 2 1/2lbs.
DGW recommended a .445 patched RB over 20gr BP and a #11 cap (sic).
