Default What about this lock ?

Don't tell me this is not a nice lock; i will cry .
Most likely a Portuguese work.
The patilha variant same as the one discussed before:

... only this is a flint lock, of an earlier manufacture ... certainly beg. XIX century.
Obviously this is not so early a piece as "Matchlock's" locks, but that's as far as i can go .
Now, what should i call this setup? A patilha lock, with spring a la Francesa, with a column cock, and so on?
Opinions and coments will be so much welcome.

Fernando
