I assume my limitation and confess my difficulty in discerning some technical details between the various lock variations. This is agravated by the lexicon applied by Fernando K being subject to engine translation ... not the best for converting technical terms. If i try to figure out the meaning of the expression 'bowl with its built bridle', i realize this means 'frizzen fixed in the pan', a detail i find too subtle to distinguish by myself when i look at the different versions; perhaps more visible if i saw these differences well signaled...
But what i think i discern with certainty is how the frizzen spring is situated 'above' or 'in front' of the main spring which, being the Armeria Real example considered correct by Fernando K, doesn't however correspond to that of Dana's example, both assumed as being part of the tres modas version. Would it be that, as Calvo (and not only) notes, Miquelete variants classification is somehow discussable ...
