Are there any very good & fast LH locks ? I was looking at the L&R Manton to fit a Tn, Mtn. It takes the smaller lock due to the mortice area.
To me, any L&R can be tuned up to perform well.
Yup. Just get the cast the right direction and the patch box and cheek rest on the correct sides and fuggitaboutit. Then all your RH buddies will gripe when they shoot it and you can say "welcome to MY world!"Well seems i got my answer, no good LH Flint-lock. So that leaves me back at point #1 Have to go with a RH but i am a south paw n left eye dominant. Such is live n right now it seems to be the pits for ML rifles.
Geez it would be so ugly, have to shot it through a knot hole. I must be an odd duck. I dislike patch boxes with a passion. To me they just ruin a nice looking stock. I guess i can shoot RH lock, just not what i wanted to spent samolians on.Yup. Just get the cast the right direction and the patch box and cheek rest on the correct sides and fuggitaboutit.

yes sir i looked at it,its large to put on a Tn. Mtn. rifle. I may have to go with a RH & live with it. Or just forget building a Flintlock. Either the stocks i like with the shorter drop at heel don't come in LH. I am trying to look at n research the stocks at Pecatonica River.Jim Chambers sells a LH Large Siler flintlock. I have one on my Lancaster rifle and have no complaints. He also sells a LH gunm,akers lock that you cut to shape. His locks are noted for quality.
