Hello

Today I finished my miquelet lock.

Here the result.

that is pretty neat, man. Always thought I wanted a pistol with a miquelet lock, and I have no reason why. I just did. Nice work. Ken

Indeed, this takes a lot of hours, but if it succeeds
it gives a good feeling, working from a photo is not easy.

Maybe someone has drawings of locks.
That would be very nice.
Thanks
