After finishing inletting the caplock, I discovered the rotation of the lock was wrong ( around the axis of the drum)and the hammer would not reach the nipple.( wasnt even close) I chose not to do what was neccessary to put a bandaid on this. Instead, I knew that the flint and cap lock plate was the same for the Pedersoli lock I was useing. So, I purchased a new lock and will build it as a flintlock. Lesson learned.! Also,my furlough from work ended so I havent had as much time to work on it.
Anyways, this is where its at, the lock inlet and simple trigger inlet. More to come
