This has the same lockplate as my old percussion CVA mountain pistol. Its marked "Spain" on the inside. The barrel is marked "Jukar." Spent some time with it to day beginning a steep learning curve vis: Flintlocks. I started getting to the point that I could tell how to position the flint for fairly reliable ignition. Best group at 18 yard - below. It was from one hand.
The spanish lock is typical of the old CVAs and has a screw for adjusting trigger pull/ sear engagement.
Was using swiss FFFG for main charge and prime and suspect ignition would have been better if I had noticed earlier that the tan leather flint wrapper was actually a bandaid.
