Default Re: Can anyone identify this device on this flintlock pistol???

I didn't say it was a good safety. It could be an attempt at keeping inadvertant spark from priming powder.

I also mentioned an attempt at keeping powder dry prior to mentioning a safety as dry powder was the first thing I considered.
