Looking for insight to the locks. I am new to the English gun scene and this one has a lot more pins than my Elsies!

I’d post a picture but I don’t use a format to link one to. I can email someone directly.

Let’s see if this works for images. It does not appear to have the Perkes patent ejectors. [img]https://imgur.com/zCzLzMd[/img] and https://imgur.com/W3UlLSf

Looks like it passed thru the Birmingham Proof facility for a reproof?

It went through in 1962 after barrels were sleeved. Originally it went through London Proof House sometime 1875-1874 and then again 1904-1925. All this from marks on barrel flats.

Possibly a prolific inventor?
