			I have two hammer guns with fishtail top levers. A O frame 16 and a 1 frame 12. 
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	The O frame 16 will open intermittently with the right hammer cocked, it is very close. The 1 frame 12 always opens with the hammer cocked.  |

			Dont want to derail the survey but is it possible wear or attempts to tighten the wear have changed function despite original intent?

 I would suspect that there would have been enough clearance originally been built in to the gun originally produced with the fishtail lever to have accomodated this possibility. .
