I took those photos myself, by special appointment of the curators of the Tojhusmuseet Copenhagen. They took the gun out of a big glass case and dismantled it especially for me!
That's nothing though. I will soon post just incredible insights of the highest adorned early wheellock mechanism to my knowledge.
Best,

Michael: It is wonderful you are able to take those photos. I would have a difficult time taking those close up photos myself. I would be too busy wiping the sweat off my hands and the druel off my mouth.
Can't wait to see the photos of the Lock you mention!!!
Again, thanks for Posting and sharing your knowledge. Much appreciated.
I'm going to email my new collector aquaintence today and gently remind him to send the photos of the Wheellock gun. Rick.
