Hello Rick!!!!
Thank you very much my friend .
It has been observed that many Greek weapons have been altered in the second half of the 19th century by American flintlock mechanisms. Many mechanisms since the end of the American civil war have come to Greece and have taken the place of the old mechanism. So what many weapons will we see is much older than the mechanism they have.Do not forget that these weapons in their area have remained stable for many years.
There are cases where kariofilia/ rasak have a mechanism
Percussion locks and no flintlock.I would also like your opinion on another post for a leather Ottoman case, knowing your interest and your knowledge of Ottoman and Balkan weapons.
thank you
Stelios
