question on a lifter

[charlie cleveland]

i should have stated with the safety factor built in it seem a person could have been hunting with a loaded gun...could have stumbled and fell and there would be no danger of acidently firing the gun...or a person could accidently drop his or hers gun even hitting the hammers just rite and ther be no chance of gun going off.....this seems to be the case with the 1875 10 ga..... charlie

what you seem to have is "rebounding Hammers"

This invention prevents the hammer from sitting directly on the firing pin/striker which not only gives some additional safety but make the gun easier to open since there is no drag of the pin on the cartridge.
