Gorgeous.
It's elegant, ominous, it's got it all really.

Thanks guys! I have used that lock before and have no complaints what so ever about it.Its a good 1720-30's French styled lock.

Sorry if this is known to most here (hence a repetition) but I'm growing towards kits myself.
The only place I know is rifle shoppe. Where else (links)?

Many thanks,

Fil

Try these guys: http://www.blackleyandson.com/

They are out of England.

I haven't used them myself but they come highly recommended by many custom builders.

Enjoy, J.D.
