Price reduced a bit. Does that lock stamp look familiar to anyone? Looks like: L. (missing), G. and W.

My $$ would be on 'D. G. W.' for Turner Kirkland's Dixie Gun Works, where the hole cut off part of the 'D' and the period!

NICE piece! You sure sell some goodies !

I didn't know DGW marked locks. I assume this is early when they made their own?

I have a DGW cap lock and a DGW flintlock I bought new about 40 years and never used in a build. They both are marked like the above lock.

That is cool. Build a rifle around them!

Does she shoot as good as she looks?

I have not shot it. I only shoot .54 in rifle and pistol. Bore looks like it should shoot just fine.

Reduced to what? I only see 1 # and that's in the original posting.

Also, can you please take another picture? I'd like to see where the flash hole sits in relation to the pan. It looks awfuly low on the barrel in that picture w/the lock removed.

Gorgeous piece of wood. But, the touch hole placement rules it out for me.

I am betting it will touch off just fine.
