Wow, that is such an old post that I was still using Geocities! Here is a video from a few years back showing Wilma in action in Matchlock mode.

If anyone is interested, I have posted a small article on my web site pertaining to 17th century French matchlock muskets (mousquet à mêche) used in New-France from 1660-1700 based on the little information we have of these rare and scarce firearms.

The post is originally from 2007. The original sites are gone. I think I can help though with pictures of the lock that was built from the plans. I hope this helps!
