Thank you, I know I can count on you Fernando.
All screws hold the external mechanism in place. If anyone has any idea of the punch? According to the former owner, it is attributed to Jan Coeter located in Grevenbroich near Dusseldorf. There were also Christian and Peter Coeter in Mannheim, as well as Léonhard in Maastricht. |

Just for your info. The name of the Grevenbroich gunmaker was not Coeter, but CLOETER
 . I added fotos of a similar pistolwith the two screws in the same position, both fixed the lock.

I wonder whether it might get pretty hot to hold? Aside from considerations of weight, wooden furniture has insulating value.
I'm not familiar with operating muzzle-loading firearms, so I don't know how quickly they might heat up on firing. Then there's considerations of slick gripping surface, and also utilisation in winter. Aside from those truly irrelevant issues, it is a really gorgeous firearm. |
