The outside mounted frizzen screw for Davide Pedersoli Kentucky Rifle or Pistol model locks is for use with Tedd Cash flash guards. Installation of a iron or brass flash guard, protects the shooter next to you from over spray vented from your flash hole. This protection is required at most-re-enactments, where flint shooters may stand and fire volleys shoulder-to-shoulder.

To install this screw. Dismount the lock from the gun. Use a mainspring vise to gently compress the frizzen spring only enough to remove tension on the frizzen. Remove the frizzen screw using a well fitted screw driver. Install the flashguard screw, and center the flash guard on the stepped shoulder. Tighten it down snug. A Tedd Cash flash guard will touch the lock plate on the rear edge. The flash guard can either be bent slightly outboard, or the rear edge can be filed with a small amount of clearance.

We offer a number of different flash guards. Available unmarked, with a French "Fleur-de-Lis" cartouche , or the English "Crown" mark over the letters "GR" for "Georgus Rex" (George the King).
