A few years ago while in a second hand book shop, the owner who knew my interest in all things firearms and engineering offered me a box of "gun bits" he had acquired in a house clearance. It turned out to be mainly rubbish but amongst the junk was a flint lock in good condition marked "tower" to the rear of the hammer. I have never used the lock , but i was wondering if the lock was from a rifle or pistol ? Were there two different sizes eg one for the rifles and one for the pistols ? I would like to use the lock if possible to build a british sea service naval pistol as a wallhanger.
