Butt Plate Size Question

[B. Dudley]

You donnot have to drop the hammers to remove the barrels. You may have to currently with your particular gun, but it is not supposed to function that way.

In theory your gun should use the number 3 buttplate. It is very large. About 5-1/2” tall. There are not many sources for it. But they are reproduced.

Yeah, I figured out pretty quickly it wasn't supposed to be doing that. Fortunately, others on here have run into similar issues. I have an 1889 Remington that runs into a similar issue with the plunger.

Do you know where I might find one of these reproductions?

I found this, but after measuring it is a 1/8 inch too small in height and width
