Wheellock Mechanism Parts and Their Correct Labeling

Thank you so much, Fernando,

I guess I perfectly understood that the translating machine you employed meant dismantled by 'gutted' and flintlocks by 'spark' arms.

Best/affectionately,

Not a wrong analogy, though

That's exactly what I thought, 'Nando,

When looking up the meaning of the verb to gut, which was unknown to me.

Best,

I think i did it

But some correction is probably needed

Hi Marcus,

Gosh, you actually did it!
Thank you so much. It was quite a joke between 'Nando and me, I would not have expected anybody to achieve this aim.

I have only very few suggestions to make as long as you can still edit and alter your post in the course of today:

3: wheel cover plate screws

9: dog with upper and lower jaw and tightening screw (it is not a hammer as it does not strike)

10: combined pan and wheel cover plate

15: dog retaining screw

5: combined wheel shaft, excentric and chain

7: pan cover

8: pan cover plate

14: dog with upper and lower jaw and tightening screw

18: dog retaining screw

19: safety catch spring

20: swiveling safety catch

21: saftey catch screw

28: combined left sear and right trigger release spring

31: left main spring pin

37: combined right sear and trigger release spring

Anyone with other sugggestions?

Best,
Michael
