If you would like, we would be happy to check out your lock. I don’t ever recall a Colonial frizzen rebounding in the past, but maybe you got a weak frizzen spring. Just send it in and we’ll do what is needed at no charge.

Thank you Jim(!), I knew that you'd stand behind the lock. But it causes me no grief as long as I extend the top jaw pad at a little.
My post wasn't to log a complaint, it was to share an idea to possibly help the OP figure out the cause to his broken Flints , and for him to be able to get a few shots off before his flint broke.
Mine is still new. I've only fired near 40 shots with the supplied flint. Looks like a French Amber. Also looks like it has more shots left in it.

Anyone who has assembled that many knows everything there is to know about that product. The OP should contact you directly with details and photos.

OR…. Let Jim take care of it.
He knows more about it than anyone.

I have close to 50 shots with my first Woodsrunner now. Same flint as supplied. But, I did send back 3 purchased with other orders that were just too small.
They looked more like pistol flints maybe. So I make a note on my orders to send larger flints. Also, I read the preferred size on the lock page ( 7/8 x 1 I believe ). Tried a few from Track - black English with flat tops - that would not fit even tho they seemed thin without humps. I thought they might fit IF the screw was longer. Anyway, my experience has been good with your flints.
