Hello
This is my first posting here but I'm also a member of the British Militaria forum.
This may be of interest to some of you, and I'd like any additional information anyone is able to add.
I have a converted flintlock carbing of Circa 1810. It's of a type issued to the police and militia units.
There is no name or markings evidend other than the Leith registration stamp LEI 559.Inside the lock is a W. That's it so far.
Being very distinctive I'd be interested to see (hopefully named) others of this type.
Currently being restored and improving slowly.
The main contenders for manufacture are Rigby and McKnight
Over to you gentlemen
