I did see the repair in the wrist and it appears to have been done very well. You did very well to find that gun!

Peter Peter, I read something recently that circa 1900 was the time of the startup(restart) of the manufacture of flintlocks for the Congo(Kongo/Angola). Seems that the trade was veiled by referring to the location as French held colonies in West Africa. Also noted was the loud colours. Kind Regards, Raimey rse
