Default EE LeFever 12 Ga.

It has a missing cocking indicator on left side. How much of a job to replace is this. I was hoping to maybe fix myself if possible. I thank you in advance. Thomas

i would not think that would be a big deal on a sidelock- assuming that's the case not one of his boxlocks

if you have the other one in the other lock - you have a model to copy

first thing to do is get the lock off and let us know

It is a piece of cake Thomas.

The indicator is retained by a small flat spring. That is it.

If the indicator is missing, then the spring likely is too.

If you need them, let me know, i have plenty of both parts.

Chris: I don't have access to take pictures at this time but thanks for the reply. I have moved and in the process of remodeling the new home the computer took a crap. I can still use the IPad but not sure how to post pictures from it. Thomas
