Hi Manolo,
I am not sure what you want to see; i will try and be usefull.
I happen to have Lavin's work.
On what touches the connection with my lock example, this sketch represents what he calls infrequent version, as far as the cocking device is concerned.
Obviously at this stage the rest of the lock was the type with the external main spring and the flintlock hammer, whereas mine, with a percussion hammer and the internal springs, together with that 'advanced' sear retracting system, is a later evolution which i haven't yet seen illustrated out there; but i keep looking, though.

Fernando.
