Default Can anyone give me some info on this?

Hey, All,

I submitted this in a different forum, Muzzleloaders... maybe I should have submitted it here instead. Take a look if you have some time and let me know what you think (the link is below)

Thanks!!

Phil

Welcome to TFF.

I believe the partial marking on the lockplate read "LEMAN LANCTR PA, an abbreviation used by Henry Leman of Lancaster Pennsylvania.

He may have made the whole gun or just provided the lock.

Here's an article about him and his guns:
