Rifle Lock

A lock is mounted, a different lock. It comes from an unused pistol. This action is very smooth and works great. There was no happiness trying to make another lock design that was smooth and had an easy trigger pull.

Shown is half-cock. The barrel is inlet and has no tang and the tang will be added later. Possible the stock will have barrel bands instead of pins or wedges. Since the barrel is probably stainless steel it would be difficult to solder pin or wedge lugs to it.

Here is that lock with full-cock notch. Notice that this older picture was taken before the half-cock was cut, and since then the front portion of the trigger was removed.




The lock now has half and full cock positions.

Next, the tang will be added.
