Well, aren't you clever.A 100 percent reliable left handed L&R lock that ignites lightning fast is a 10,000 percent better lock than the left handed lock the likes of Kibler produces......

Did I lie?Well, aren't you clever.
He don't, and that's the point, other than L&R makes a good lock.I didnt know Kibler made a left hand lock. I guess im behind as the usual for me
What is the deal with the “upgrade” parts for older L&R locks? I am building up a NOS Sharon Trade Rifle with a 50 year old L&R percussion lock that is untouched.
What necessitates the upgrade?
I don’t think he doesI didnt know Kibler made a left hand lock. I guess im behind as the usual for me
I gotta say if LC and Chubby Jaws are making it. It is well designed and made.L.C. Rice showed a lock he was getting ready for production at last years Tennessee show. It was smooth as silk, lightning fast and sparked like a flame thrower on steroids.... Impressive to say the least..
Hopefully he will have some at the show this year.
Now before anyone comments. I've been using flintlocks for 55 + years. I know a superior lock. This one had it in spades. and I've owned at one time most every production lock out their.
I bought a pair of L&R flint locks a couple of years ago. One sear lever chipped but they sent a free spare to the UK within a week
Horrors later. They had become rusty from condensation so I left them for 20 mins in rust removal. Horrors the main springs were in bitts. WHY???!!!!! Sadly no reply from L&R. I did not like the price of new L&R springs or quality
I bought eBay a pair of old back action , like on my underlever , shotgun locks £14. I tried the main springs and they fitted perfectly. . I little bit more springy but powerful. Around 1880 I guess made in Birmingham One advantage of UK plenty of old cheap shotgun bits around. There’s a couple on eBay now around £21, 4 hours to go not bidding £30
I have bought a couple of 1820 Bess east India company locks on eBay, but few and far between , over £260 now I’ll go for them in future but constant eBay checking very good locks with masses of sparks
But make no mistake they are big locks big flints. Ha ha love them
I wish you well sunny today but heavy rain for rest of week
