Help identifying new flintlock locks

[rich pierce]

I’ve seen a lot of the production locks and locks made from castings sets. But I need help identifying these.

Here is #1.  It has a fleur de lis mark on the outside of the lock plate. On the inside there is a “cc” stamp. Note the square top frizzen.






Lock #2 resembles a Chambers round faded English lock in shape and size. But there is a real drain between the fence and pan. A grate; not a ditch. The internals do not resemble the Chambers internals. Inside it is stamped “cc”.

Bazinga! You nailed it.

Is Caywood still in business?

That is a good question Rich. The last posting on his website is from 2022. The pricing on his locks are from that date. As you are aware lock prices have gone up considerably since then.

He was about 6 months ago or so. Thats the last time I talked to him. He is a one man show an I doubt he messes with his web sight much an Danny is getting on in yrs as I am so I figure he tired. I know I am. Yall are right. They are Caywood locks. Very fast locks I might add

Thanks, all. There are several Caywood locks in a gunmaker’s estate I just acquired. I’ll be liquidating most of the estate bit by bit over the next year.
