Sometimes called Siler’s pistol lock, this medium sized percussion lock is ideal for light rifles with 13/16", 7/8" or 15/16" octagon barrels. Similar in shape to Siler’s large lock, they are often confused.
Made in right hand only, an identical small flint lock may be ordered to interchange with it. Build your gun as percussion first, since drum placement is most critical.
Our Siler small caplock matches our small flint lock. Cut for a 7/16" powder drum, the drum must be well supported during the hammer fall. Use our #Drum-7-5-F-N.
