D Top Lever Hammer double beads???
 

I was fondling my D Top Lever Hammer #6 frame and noticed what I call double beads. Are all D TLHammer guns files the same way??

You made me dig to the back of the safe, but yes 1 frame and 2 frame both have the double bead as you call it.

5 frames 10 and 8 also.

It makes no mention in the letter about double beads ?

Do the brochure or catalogs make mention of the beads ?

I've never seen any mention of "beads" in the books.

I have read that when Parker initiated the radiused frame to replace rge 90 degree frame, they also introduced the bead or beads for strength at the juncture of the breech face and the action flats. But no mention of the number of beads was discussed.

The two beads that Craig asks about leading up from the water table is standard fare on hammer guns of grade 3 and higher.

My 4 frame 10 has the double bead

What grade is it George?
