I’m confused then Brian. You say the top lever in your photograph is the “early” style, and mine is identical.

Mark,

In my photo, I show both styles of levers.

Yours is the late style.

The guns made from 1910 to about 1917-1917 used the late lever, but the early style V spring. After that is when the pocketed coil spring was used.

Personally, I think that repairing the broken lever is the best option since finding a 00 frame top lever from that 1910-1918 window will be a tall order.
