The flintlock mechanism is a type of lock used on muskets, pistols, and rifles in the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries. It is commonly referred to as a "flintlock" (without the word mechanism), though that term is also commonly used for the weapons themselves as a whole, and not just the lock mechanism.
The flintlock, also known as the true flintlock, was developed in France in the early 17th century. It quickly replaced earlier technologies, such as the matchlock and wheellock and the earlier flintlocks. It continued to be in common use for over two centuries, until it was finally replaced by the percussion lock. 
Construction and operation
A typical flintlock mechanism has a piece of flint which is held in place in between a set of jaws on the end of a short hammer. This hammer (sometimes called the cock) is pulled back into the "cocked" position. When released by the trigger, the spring-loaded hammer moves forward, causing the flint to strike a piece of steel called the "frizzen". At the same time, the motion of the flint and hammer pushes the frizzen back, opening the cover to the pan, which contains the gunpowder. As the flint strikes the frizzen it creates a spark which falls into

Together with its third-party developer Vertexmacht, we are pleased to announce that the optional data for the Global Mobilization DLC (GM) is now available for download on the Arma 3 Steam Workshop. Subscribing to this Workshop item does NOT give you ownership of this DLC, but it will make it possible for those who do not yet own this DLC to join multiplayer servers that make use of GM assets, such as its weapons and vehicles.
Please be aware that restrictions https://www.bohemia.net/blog/roadmap-14-15-dlc-strategy-blog to the use of DLC assets will apply to non-owners (for example, premium weapons cannot be picked up, premium vehicles can be primarily used as a passenger, and you receive DLC purchase notifications when using premium assets). Also note that access to the GM DLC's Weferlingen terrain remains fully exclusive to owners of the DLC (similar to default Arma 3 DLC with premium terrains such as Arma 3 Apex/Tanoa).
