Dear Geezer:
If you must ask this forum why the tumbler of your VH will not stay cocked, I fear that the project you've chosen may be a bit beyond your abilities.

My guess would be that the tumbler notch is rounded... or the crank is out of time. Both would require disassembly to confirm.

With all due respect, the gun appears decent enough to warrant a responsible restoration.

Best, Kensal
