Any flintlock guru's on here

[Way2slow]

I have one someone converted to percussion cap and I want to convert it back to flintlock.  It's just going to be wall decoration and not intended to shoot but I like the looks for the flintlocks over percussion types. 

My problem is, this is probably an older reproduction and I can't identity it and it's larger than any locks I can find on the web.  The lock in it is approximately 6 3/16" long and 1 1/8" high.  It very similar to the French 1822 but a carbine version.  The barrels on 37" long, and it has no barrel bands on it.  I can't find any info on the size locks in the 1822.  

Dixie Gun Works, said I would have to mail them the lock before they could help, which I hate doing because if it get lost, I'm screwed.

Anybody have anything with a lock that big and can tell my what theirs is?

 

Update:  I've about 95% nailed it down to being a 1795 Springfield Musket, but still having problems identifying the parts.

After tons of research and asking, I finally narrowed it down to be an authentic French1763 Charleville, which is the same gun Springfield Armory copied to make the 1795, so the both look almost the same, and most parts will interchange.  No documentation to prove it, but there is a good chance it was a Confederate, Civil war rifle.  About 80 thousand of them were converted to percussion locks and used by the confederate solders in the civil war.  This one has the same style conversion most of those they used had. 

However, that's all a pipe dream without documentation, and since someone ground off the most of the marking on the lock, the only way I could identify it as an Authentic Charleville, is by the screws. The ones that hold the lock in have some special markings, and they are a non standard metric that was used back then.  There is also one marking on the outside and one marking on the inside of the lock the Charleville's have.  I have not pull the barrel to see if it has the markings on the bottom of it because it really is not going to matter.  The fact most all markings are ground off, the barrel has been shortened to 37" and stock cut back into a carbine style, pretty much ruins it and no documentation connecting it to the Civil War, it's a nice conversation piece hanging on the wall.  I've got some parts in and others on order to convert it back to a flintlock.  I think they make better looking wall hangers than percussion's.
