The pan, being attached to the barrel, is totally separate from the lock plate. The illustration in the book I referenced earlier should say it all. I’d scan my copy but am away from home at present so can’t get to it just yet. The book has gone through several reprintings so is easily available on the antiquarian book websites. Lots of interesting info as well, Robert Held was a great researcher and writer.
