This lock will be used on the project that I am building, to include the damascus barrel mentioned earlier in this thread.

This lock is totally my design and is the first flint lock that I have ever built. All of the pivot points and geometry are based on my calculations. All of the major parts of this lock are made of damascus steel. After spending so much time making this lock out of damascus, it was a real relief to have it function perfectly on the first test.

I'll post pictures of the lock when finished, as well as updates on the project build.

Below is a video of the test firing of this lock.
