Fragment of a closing plate of a snaphanes lock of a musket, anonymous, c. 1590 - c. 1996 Fragment of the lock plate of a snaphanes lock. A piece of profiled flint is clamped in the rooster using a screw with an eye. The remarkably shaped rooster is mounted with an axle by the lock plate. At the axis, one of the traces of De Haan, which connects the rooster with the Slagveer, has been demolished. On the inside of the lock plate there is still the remains of the rod and the deposit with which the lock was fired. De Haan belongs to another fragment of the same lock to which a steel is attached
