Platines de mousqueton?Help please!:D

Hello guys,

still me!
Found these 2 platines de mousqueton i believe!
Can i have some help to identify it guys?
Really dont know nothin' about it..XD
Thanks in advance!!

A bientot,
Alex.

Hello!
A good picture of this one, the other side, please?


The screw are modern!
What is the total length?

The main spring have no screw: abnormal.

May be a copy??



The other one was a flintlock platine, modified for caps in the 1840/1860's.
Civil transformation for hunting.


The flange nuts (green) is not a military.
Else is like a 1777, AN IX, 1822 platine.

A 1777 platine:


Note the mainspring screw and the flange nuts.
Total length 160 mm.

Difference with a 1754 rifle:




1728 and 1746 are similar.
It is not a french military platine.

The sheet battery spring is blued and seems very thin!
As the screws, it's looks like a modern spring.

Hello Crevette,

thanks for reply my friend!
Found the couple on a flea market and as i said i really dont know nothin' about it!
Do you think that one its a copy?
Of wich era?
A modern or a old copy?
I've take some better pics, hope this help!

A bientot,
Alex.

P.S.
Can i have acces to MP please?
Even to sale section if i can, jut to buy or sell somethin'!

.

12,5 cm, it is small.
May be for a pistol or a mousqueton?
But not french.

The screws slots are as U (in green on the picture): modern.
Old screws slots are as V.


The 2 dog's screws are made with mechanical turn (in orange below: tool circular marks), the dog is molded (molding line in red on the picture above): copy.
 I think modern copy.


Perhaps the screws are at ISO standards?

For sale section: wait after one month presence (20/7/2014>20/8/2014).
For MP it is OK, no?

Bonsoir Crevette,

thanks a lot for your help my friend!
Incredible..Even that kind of things are faked?
Cant believe it!Haha..
I wonder how they are come to that flea market!XD
I've pay 20 euro for both, do you think its too much?

No problem about the acces, now the MP works, great!

A bientot,
Alex.

20€ is not expansive!
60/80€ approximatively for the caps platine original and more than 100€ for the copy, she is beautiful and good for a XVIII° century (approx. 1730>1760) copy flint pistol.
