    My custom wheellock is on it's way

    No, actually a guy named Andras Konya from Hungary did the lock. He had posted several of his locks he made on this site somewhere in a thread so I contacted him about doing a lock for me. He sent me pics of various examples of original locks and locks he'd done and I picked this one - copied...

    My custom wheellock is on it's way

    Well, the lock was delivered on Monday. IT's a real work of art. Every piece made by hand. He included a spanner, two lock bolts, and a thingie with a ferrocerium rod in it for the jaws. I use a ferrocerium rod flattened for jaws, or actual pyrites but the inclusion was a considerate...

    My custom wheellock is on it's way

    Yes, if my health allows. My health kind of went south the last few years and I had to stop building guns and furniture in my shop. The fine docs at UW have been great, and I may be able to get back to it in moderation. The maker of the lock made it to be an exact copy of an original (and...

    My recently acquired K.L. Moors Moravian style rifle

    Recently jumped on this rifle on Clay Smith's site. Since I am originally from a mere 8 miles from Christian Springs I could not resist. I have to say, Mr. Moore is a fine artisan.

    My custom wheellock is on it's way

    Have waited months, and my custom made wheellock lock is finally on it's way to me. Smith also made a spanner to go with it.

    New Argentine Wheel lock

    I find that to be a reasonable cost for such a lock, particularly given the hand work required, plus tuning etc. Let's face it. Nobody is mass producing wheellock locks that I know of. Good job AAOG. I ordered a custom wheellock lock from a Hungarian guy named Andras Konya. I don't have it...
