Hi Eftihis
Thanks for the lock photos. The lock looks Portuguese to me also. One difference I notice is that the tumbler has to notches. One for safety and the upper for firing position. The Portuguese locks I've seen have only one firing notch on the tumbler as shown on the lock I posted. There is usually a thumb piece in front of the hammer neck that can be rotated to engage a slot in the neck of the hammer to act as a safety. Maybe yours is a different variant (?) Philip can address these Portuguese locks better when he returns. Again, very interesting gun with a mix of cultures. Rick |
