Your choice of the Golden Age Germanic is interesting. That particular lock is very attractive and looks great on your rifle. While you were at Dixon's, was that recommendation for a pre-war E Lancaster or later. I still have not absolutely settled on the lock for my next rifle.

Hanshi,
When I spoke with the folks at Chambers at the Dixon Show they said the "Golden Age Germanic" is appropriate for 1770 through the war until almost the start of the 19th century....1790 or so.
It's the lock they had on their "Early" example and I think that they include with their "Early" kit.
The longer tail and slimmer lock plate really transition great into the wrist and keep the lines flowing.
 
The nice lines of the lock plate do look good. It apparently shares the "deluxe" modifications of the deluxe Siler as well. How do you like the lock's performance?
