Here are two cannon flintlocks, the top one English and bottom one Russian. English made by Sherwood, Russian by Tula Arsenal. These locks were obviously made to the same pattern, so I suspect Russia bought a license on what was an English design.
The ruler is marked in inches. I would like to know the meaning of the longer Russian word tbat is marked on the Russian lock. I would also like to know the meaning of the stylized "T" which appears above the name "Sherwood" on the English lock. Thanks for helping. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
