Well, Rick,

You can't because none of them has ever been published!

I took those photos myself, by special appointment of the curators of the Tojhusmuseet Copenhagen. They took the gun out of a big glass case and dismantled it especially for me!

That's nothing though. I will soon post just incredible insights of the highest adorned early wheellock mechanism to my knowledge.

Best,
Michael
