Gun Lock for I.D.

Matchlock · 1st November 2011, 07:47 PM

Hi Rick,

I agrree with Fernando K.

French military lock, ca. 1750-60. The brass bridle retaining the tumbler is highly unusual indeed. Might also have belonged to a pre-Revolutionary American musket or pistol.

Great condition, anyway!

Best,
Michael
