Hello all,
This is my first post and I am looking for dimensions to make a flintlock pistol. I am retired and come from England, the place that the bad chaps have guns and the goodies have had them taken away from them. I worked with a chap who was in a gun club and he had some very nice pistols, one I remember looked like a Dirty Harry gun, anyway the law changed and he had to hand them in, he was so up set about this at the time.
I make small model steam engines and boilers but needed a change so I made three small antique guns a copies, of one my father has and they came out well, so now looking to make a flintlock. I have looked on the internet for any plans but cant find any, the only book I have found is by Georg Lauder but the book is very expensive for me, £140.00. If any one on the forum can help with a flintlock measurements, lock and parts I will be very grateful, it will be made so it will not fire.
Thanks Bob
