This is a cool tintype of a pair of men both posing with pistols one of the men also wearing leather gloves. The Tin is a little over 3 inches tall.

Great tintype!
I'd call it men with pistols-- nothing to suggest that they are "outlaws". It was popular to have photographs taken with weapons in 19th century photography. These images have a strong collector following.

Thanks Scott I was just using Outlaws to Grab attention. I agree back in the day people all carried weapons so it's not that unusual but a great image.
Scott. I think the taller one is Lincoln & the other is John Wilkes Booth . LOL !!
Pinkerton's maybe?
