I've been informed by a very experienced collector that most of us here know, or at least know of, that told me that snap caps are not necessarily needed for letting down the hammers, but they are needed for Parker ejector guns (and other makes with ejectors and similar hammers) to offer resistance for ejectors. He told me that he has seen, on more than one occasion, of the ejector rods as well as the doll's head snapping off when opening the gun if the hammers are relieved without snap caps. Anyone else here experienced this?
