Hi!
I hope that I truly understand your speech.
I think that from the beginning it was a matchlock mechanism.
Of course, the gunsmith, built this mechanism wheellock board, but just enough.
I think that Michel is right, maybe gunsmith built this mechanism to replace damaged wheellock in existing weapons. Maybe that's why the mechanism is in the shape of the original disc mechanism.
I built (I reconstructs) a number of mechanisms wheellock, matchlock, and SnapLock, and I am on this lockblate mechanism can not see the changes (traces of) modifications. Skoda that the original picture is not very clear.
Greetings
Bolek
