    Making Circassian or Caucasian flintlock - miquelet

    I made lock plate. When I installed the lock screws, it turned out that the distance between the rear screw and the sear is very small and the screw interferes with the sear. Will have to redo and make the sear shorter.

    Making Circassian or Caucasian flintlock - miquelet

    The frizzen spring is not yet installed. I haven't even made this spring yet. Later I will show how I install it. By the way, I would like to find good photos of the Circassian flintlock rifle.
