Miquelet lock
« on: June 10, 2023, 02:23:06 PM »
Hello,

After half a year doing nothing I started to make a Miquelet lock.
It was nor easy because I never saw this lock in reality.
Here the result, and.......it sparks!!

All the best,
Adrie

Impressive! You do the engraving too? That would do a pocket pistol justice.

Yes, I did write a book. It's called The Classic English Double Barrel Click the little globe between my profile and e-mail link to check it out.

Adrie,
That is wonderful!  Nice work.  It seems that you and I were making locks at the same time!  Mine is not finished yet, but I will post pictures when it is. 



All the best to you and Gonny,

That would make a dandy Ripoll pocket pistol.
