Older Lock fixed up for use.

Here is an older lock, dated "P12032011" for the serial number.
For a really long while it was not functioning correctly and today it is now fixed.
This lock is quite smooth in trigger movement with no scraping or roughness.
It cannot be guessed when it will release.

It is a crude copy of one that can be found online. Wade Ingrhams Info.
This lock is different in that it has a half-cock position while Wade's does not.

Trigger will be reshaped and curved, later.
Half cock position.

Half cock position, insides.
Left to right: Hammer with shim washers, sear that slides on that shelf below it, brass link, trigger and spring, hammer spring mounting block threaded 8-32 US.

Full cock position. Cover plate.

Fired position. Hammer pushes the sear out of the way during cocking.

Half cock position. Note the link.

Fired position. I am holding the trigger to the rear most position.

A rough guess as how the hammer spring may look. It would attach to the back of the lock with that 8-32 screw. Obviously the trigger is way too big.
