HH, I'm back, coffeed up and brain working as well as it usually does. I checked my rifles, all have pins/keys installed from the right. These rifles represent the work of five different builders, three of them acknowledged master class. I looked in some of my books for visual reference, all have entry from the right. I tried to reference my copy of 'How to build and recreate the Kentucky Longrifle' but I cannot find it. I suspect I loaned it and it was never returned.
I stand by my original advice, remove barrel keeper pins and keys from the right hand side only otherwise wood will be splintered.
HH, git some coffee.
