Not very knowledgeable about flintlocks, but just bought a used Pedersoli kentucky pistol and noticed that the trigger pull is very light and you can even use your finger to release the cock with moderate pressure from the full cock position. Is there somewhere I can read up on the function of the lock to try to determine what's up. Could be someone messing with the sear, or something simple. I'm guessing I need some new lock parts. At any case, it seems unsafe to me to have it this way. Any advice on flintlock gunsmiths?
Thank you,
