My springs since 1998 are copied to the best of my ability,after the springs of Brazier and Stanton and seen on long range rifles.
Most of my locks for that style of rifle are also seen on double barrel rifles and shot guns.I also on request made the Rigby styled plates but made the same 4 screw mechanisms and I think about 40 exist either on a rifle or saved for a project.There were also,perhaps 8 smaller ones on the same pattern for boys rifles or pistols.Bob Woodfill had one on a fine scaled down version of an Alex Henry target rifle.I think he called ot a "rook"rifle.I didn't mind taking the time to detail these locks like the old ones and they were not cheap but did show what I thought of the buyer.
