The long and the short of it - an inside story

[Harry Sanders]

Great answers. Let's start a new twist on it. Let's start a discussion on evolutionary changes in hammerless guns. Hammers guns after we've exhausted hammerless. I'll start. Early guns had two separate pinned into the frame V sear springs on either side of the "block" that the top lever descends into. Later guns have a horizontal slot cut and flat spring inserted into the slot. Brian only one answer! Until we get to the subtleties at the end then it's fair game. Think we'll need to do the hammer guns by group. Lifter, top lever back action, etc.
Have fun.
