I am pretty new to this forum, and no quiz kid with the computer. I don't know how to private message either. Would it make sense for me to photograph the flint lock and send/post a photo? That way you would at least see what I have.
Does it make sense for us to swap email addresses (or is that somehow risky in an online forum?)
What parts of the lock do you need?
I don't need to get rich from the sale of this lock, so we can discuss a price that's fair to both of us. I like trades, too, but I have been shooting muzzleloaders and accumulating stuff for about 58 years so there's not a lot I don't already have on hand... But maybe I'll think of something in the meantime.
Thanks. I'll try to be in touch promptly in response to your messages, but please be patient if I don't respond right away. I have been ill for a while.
Eric
