Dog-lock blunderbuss, India-made, refinished and "de-farbed", and a swivel mount added. Will be mounted on the front of my boat for use at reenactment events with a water-borne element. (I expect the usual comments about flintlocks from the Asian subcontinent, but this thing sparks like crazy and goes off every time...without exploding, ha-ha!)

Love it from what I've seen those India smoothbores are fine shooters.
 
NICE! So did you purchase the lock separately or did it come on the stock/furniture and you refinished or de-farbed all of it?

(Quint should’ve had that setup on his boat ‘Orca’. May that would’ve worked better than barrels in catching sharks? Sorry…couldn’t help it)
