Bulgaria is part of the EU. There should be no problem getting Bobi's part shipped to the US.

Yes she is! Best friend and companion Explorer! We have quite an exciting life.

I have had no issues getting things to the US. It is just getting expensive. Attached is Czerny's policies for shipping internationally. There are new antiquities laws in Italy with new fees & paperwork. UPS just delivered multiple antique flintlock pistols, bladed items, & locks. Shipped next...

And they shoot crazy in a wrist rocket! Deadly

Excellent! I love your attention to detail. Thank you for sharing! William

No. Loaf is coated with rolled oats. Bread contains Einkorn berries, cracked berries, rye & whole wheat flour. Pumpkin, sunflower, flax, & sesame seeds. Honey, buttermilk, & sourdough starter. Good solid bread! Easier to make than this Jäger!

Finally got the side plate inlet! Slow going. First build and I chose a highly decorated Jäger with much engraving and carving. Have to always push myself! Maybe I should start a build thread... so far this is going on 2 years... Made some Vollkornbrot to go with the smoked venison...

Welcome ! Your rotzetki are nice! Thanks for the images. William

Almost finished the Jäger patch box cover lid inletting. Then to forge a button, spring, & latch for it.

Well... is it finished? Like to see your progress.

Great museum! Enjoy the hunt! Thanks for the images!

Found this write up referring to extendable butt stocks of Charles V. Of course, no images that show how they work. Lots to investigate later this summer! Thanks for all the research folks! I am really enjoying these threads!

It appears the bottom 2 locks, in the original post, are a "set" for a double barreled matchlock... a left and a right side. How cool!

So... what is the best case hardening compound that is available? I was looking for some Kasenit and it is unobtainable. Thanks!

Thank you!

Well. I do not want the flash from the pan coming out at my face... Smile... Any ides on how the original worked? Or any other opines on solving this question: swiveling the barrel by pulling the trigger back and then pushing it forward to engage the pin. Then cock the hammer and fire!

When were coil springs used in locks?

Here is another set of plans I came across... http://www.homegunsmith.com/cgi-bin/ib3/iB_html/uploads/post-59-22637-Wheellock_Plans.pdf From Greg Lauber... Have fun! William
