I picked up a flintlock with the cursive name on it of Buchele. It is new not hardened except for the springs, I think it will take the older size flint, 5/8 X 5/8"

Here are some pic of the markings on both sides. I have hardened thew parts and fit the pan, looks like a nice little lock? any info on will be appreciated!

William Buchele was a highly regarded maker. A search in the forums here will turn up dozens of posts about him and his guns. That's likely a handmade lock, as the time he was active there weren't many sources for parts.
