The German guns of early to mid 18th Century were instrumental in the development of our American Kentucky Rifle. This Jaeger lock is typical of the half-round half-flat plate styling found on many fine arms of old Europe during this period. Joseph Frey was one of the great masters utilizing this style. Lockplate is 5 1/2" X 15/16 with traditional hook type springing, bering surfaces on tumbler and sear, rain resistant frizzen to pan fit, cam action and a nice short stroke hightly polished internally. Recommeneded flint size is 3/4". Right hand only.
