Here’s a year 2000-ish made L&R John Bailes or small Manton lock. This one is a touch different than the one that is being sold today. The fly is inlet on the plate side of the tumbler, whereas the ones today are inlet on the bridle side. I have a newer one too and I think the older ones like this one have a better fit and finish than the newer ones.
This lock has never been installed. No holes drilled. It has been tuned by Brad Emig of Cabin Creek. See invoice. There is a small imperfection/crack in the sear spring. It does not affect the operation. $380 shipped.
