- 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

Great help, I took mine apart and the tip on re-installing the sear spring was priceless. Thank you!
So happy it was helpful!!
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.
I definitely appreciate the care and precision in your locks. I’m saving up for a southern mountain kit now. Appreciate your great videos!
Awesome! Thank you!
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 !!
Thank you, we really appreciate that! We are working on taking a vacation some day!
Love your videos they are so so much help.
I'm happy to hear they are helpful! Thanks for watching.
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.
Is there a video on how to "finish" the lock or do we leave it as received?
Late reply, but for their current CNC lock you simply keep the internals generally lubricated and ideally apply grease in a couple of places as they advise. There is a picture showing where grease helps more than oil on their website. The internals need no finishing by the user. The exterior surfaces (not the areas that touch the wood, only the areas visible when mounted) should be polished to remove the bead blasted finish and then finished to bright white or whatever color (or aged finish) is appropriate and desired. Edit: you can use sandpaper backed with dowels, popsicle sticks, etc. to polish the exterior of the lock. Don't use your hands alone. Some people get up to, say, 320 grit paper and then buff the steel.
Best educational videos around...thanks. I will be ordering one of your kits shortly.
Awesome, thank you!
I drilled out an appropriate size hole in a 2X4 in order to knock out the tumbler. The wood supports the plate and the tumbler falls into the hole.
Did the fly also fall into the hole?
Great videos today! Just received my Colonial kit yesterday, I'm Absolutely Impressed with the quality. THANKS!
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.
Good idea and we will work on that
Thank you from France!
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
Great video. Thank you.
Interesting video, thanks.
Much, much, much improved audio!
I heard the top jaw screw slot was narrow to fit a knife blade or the tip of a bayonet. My original bayonets do not have a pointed tip the Tri-shape most bayonets end with a flat screwdriver shape. Jim, is this true about the screw slot in the cock jaw??
Do I need to browning the new lock from kit? Thanks
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
Very Awsome!
Glad you think so!
Jim, are there any parts of the lock that would require polishing or the trigger assembly?
no nothing requires polishing
How often would you take it apart, other than for a repair? Once a year to clean?
Never unless it gets rusty or something.
how many hours to assemble andg finish a squirrel rifle ?
how often do you need to do a complete disassembly of a lock
never unless it gets rusty or something
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
It can only be put in one way, just be careful, they're definitely called a fly for a reason. They're very easily lost.
@@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.
Vc tem alguma gabarito desse fecho a venda ou projeto ou desenho.
Thanks!!!
Thanks for watching!

Bought mine from Dixie gun works. Track of the wolf was back ordered.
We sell a vise that is great for a hobbyist available on our website, kiblerslongrifles.com/products/stock-makers-vise?_pos=1&_psq=vise&_ss=e&_v=1.0
