Late Ketland Flintlock
Item # L-16

The Queen Anne Lock is the same as the Colonial Virginia and the Early English lock only it has been reduced in size for use on pistols and small rifles or fowlers.  One would find locks of this type on pistols made between 1740 and 1780 both in the colonies and in England. This lock fits the transitional period niche with its Jaeger-like features. Anyone considering making a Jaeger or a transitional period rifle or fowler of the 1750-1770 period would find this lock ideal. The early Ketland is a typical “export quality” lock.
It is suitable for rifles, fowlers and trade guns produced during the second half of the 18th century.
This lock uses the same internal parts as the Colonial Virginia and Early English locks, and has the same earn-type action and a sear that returns to the same position at rest, half-cock and full cock. This lock is available with or without a pan bridle.
By the early 1800′s, this import lock style could be found anywhere in the USA. This lock uses a roller on the frizzen spring and uses the same internals of the large Siler lock. This lock is fast, reliable and easy on flints.

Mountain, Southern, Plains, Trade, Ohio, and Indian Rifles would all have been made with this lock. In fact, almost any rifle dating from the late 1830′s through the end of the nineteenth century could have been made with this style of lock.
