Hi Richard
No, I haven't taken the lock off yet. If I do, I'll start digging in to everything and not finish the other project that I should be able to post this coming weekend. LOL But your very thought occurred to me also. The barrel could have been originally a matchlock. Especially with this fluted barrel. In fact, it is probably likely. But I'll get to it in the next couple weeks and post here again. Good question !!! I'm anxious to know myself.
By the way, the pics of my shooting Jazail above. The barrel on that one was originally matchlock. It was a fun Thread here on the Forum 2/3 years ago.
