Reading some of the posts over on sister forum muzzleloadingforum.com, it seems that Thos. Ketland made locks by the literal thousand, but not complete guns. One of his contracts was the supply of three thousand locks for the colonies...

Hi tac,

Thanks for the information.

The next shoot is on the 15th of Dec. I will try and get the owner of the Ketland to bring it up so I can photograph it. I will get pictures as soon as I can.
The owner may know more of its history than his friend. From what I understand the gun was made by Ketland. I will do what I can to confirm this.

Atb.
