This simple early sideplate has an attractive pointed tail. Long enough for larger flint locks, or shorten the front end for symmetry around the front lock bolt, on rifle size locks. French influenced, this sideplate is very similar to the French Type D fusil sideplate.

Wax cast steel. Made in the USA. Overall length 5-1/2", height 1-1/16", thickness 0.120".
