I am looking for a photograph of an M1840 flintlock conversion to percussion performed by the contractor John Wurfflein for the federal government.
Such conversions were said to have a plate that filled the flash pan notch on the lock plate, acting as a seat for the bolster. I want to see a picture of this configuration.
Wurfflein only made about 2,000 conversions.
Also, does anyone have contact information for George D. Moller?
Thanks,
Steve Sheldon
