You say that the name on the lock is HEIST??? Looks to be more letters than that from the unclear pic you have posted. If it IS HEIST then that name does not appear among those in any of the the books I have on English Gunmakers. If the lock IS genuine EIC then the makers name should also be genuine, unless of course it has been placed later....but why would you?

Hi Stu

Thanks for your comments. After closer inspection, it appears to be HIRST.
