Jim revisits the topic of lock disassembly and assembly. He did this video a year ago, but we have a lot of new customers and subscribers since then. Here is the link to the grease Jim uses in the video Krytox GPL 215 www.amazon.com...
Jim, it would be helpful to have an exploded view of the lock with names of parts and maybe torques for the screws etc. In fact, I would pay for a printed one to come with the kit or as a pdf from the store.
Thanks for taking the time to make these videos. They are very educational for those of us who have never worked on a flintlock. I'll be ordering a kit soon.
You could but we prefer to leave the lock in the white or use Jax Black, kiblerslongrifles.com/products/jax-black-darkener-recommended-for-iron-steel-parts?_pos=1&_psq=jax+b&_ss=e&_v=1.0
Tôi là người việt nam và tôi đam mê súng đá lửa, cũng như cách bạn hướng dẫn. Tôi rất muốn mua một bộ khoá như vậy nhưng lại không biết phải đặt mua thế nào, thật là đáng tiếc. Chúc bạn có những trải nghiệm tuyệt vời với đam mê của mình
Getting ready to reassemble my SMR lock after finishing. I wanted to make sure I had the steps in the proper order and the lubrication correct. Thank you for such a detailed and precise product.
Thank you Jim … your kits are effortless and marvelous at the same time. My woods runner is fantastic! You’re making the history books my friend. Keep up the good work, take a little break now and again to avoid burnout. Your long rifles are second to none !!
awesome video. could you explain a little more about replacing the Fly? small part and hard to see in video. does it have a specific orientation or can it only be put together one way? thanks
@@kiblerjim I'm having trouble with this step as well. I blued my SMR lock and now I'm struggling to get it back together. The fly may only go in one way but I can't seem to figure out what way that is. I wish I had taken a picture of the year of the lock before I disassembled it.
@charlesgrantham5216 I much fear losing the fly of my L &R lock, which I will contemplate taking apart today if the frizzen clamp arrives from Dyson (English company). I once lost a spring loaded part of a Radom (Vis 35) magazine catch and had to make one by hand...sight unseen.
