M&G locks

Over the last couple of months I have seen several references to the M&G locks. Someone must have slipped these in while I was taking a nap, can anyone enlighten me on these?

Larry L. Zornes makes them at the Mold and Gun shop. He has no web site but if you call him ((740) 286-2743) he will send you a brochure. He makes about a dozen different locks, some kits and some hardware. All top knotch, high quality stuff.

He has been making some of R.E. Davis locks[i cannot recall which models] and a lot of the internal for thier locks also for many years. He is a good gut to deal with in my experience.

You can view the locks on the R.E. Davis web site as well.

I've one of Larry's locks on a fowler. It's the lock he made for the Ferguson rifle. It is a well made lock & works as good as any of the others. Track also carries the Barker ~ Whatley lock.

I have used several of his locks and they are great. Tip Curtis has them in stock.

Here is a Classic (M&G) in my rendition of a Bucks County rifle. It is a bit smaller than a Large Siler. Mechanism works well and breaks cisply when the trigger is pulled. Can't speak to sparking yet but I hear service from Larry is good so I'm not worried.
