    Tingle Lock?

    Thanks for the information Cowboy! My thoughts on the defarb are the same. I also thought that may be an original lock plate that the Tingle mechanism was married into but wasn't sure. My draw to it was that it used by the 66th Illinois during the war.

    Dimick Rifle

    Here is the underside of the lock. As others have pointed out to me, this was built by Bob Tingle. The barrel has the same breech plug as a Tingle used as well. He marked just about every part with his serial number on this rifle. If it is an original lock plate, he put his serial number on it...

    Tingle Lock?

    Measured it today and it is. I only shoot reproduction Civil war muskets, so I'm going to grab a musket cap nipple for it and see if it works.

    Tingle Lock?

    The breech plug was super easy to remove. It reminded of a New England firearms handi muzzleloader I once owned. Is it normal for the drum to come down into the breech that far? It would sit right down on the plug face

    Dimick Rifle

    Good Morning, I just picked up this rifle marked H E Dimick on the lock plate and barrel. I'm a civil war guys, and intrigued with the 66th Illinois Infantry, who were equipped with Dimick Rifles. I know the history about them, but looking for someone who may know the maker of this one. I assume...
