Rob,
That's excellent news! It does appear that the Stevens shares the locking mechanism with the Whitney. The original patent date on the Whitney top rib is October 23, 1866. I dont have the # offhand but it would be interesting to sit down and see if there are additional design feature shared between those two examples. As for the Wesson, vs the Stevens, I think they may be very different animals from a mechanical perspective.
Once you get it back from Buck please give us a range report!
