Rick,
Not sure what "rollers in the frizzens" means but it did come with extra flint and the tool to makes more balls should I ever decide to make so noise.

the toe of the frizzen either rides on the flat of that V spring or on a "roller" - a bearing which makes the action a little smoother

in this example the roller is on the spring - it can be in the toe of the frizzen as well



other wise a hard polished toe of the frizzen rides on the flat of the spring- also polished

I just added a Westley Richards center hammer Rook Rifle. It is a 297/250.

I would bet your WR looks a lot like my H&H in 360 no5.

I will post some photos when I receive it.

I now have to amend my first post. I just picked up a 1/2 frame VHE 12ga from a PGCA member.

Sounds like the incantation from The Wizard of Id to me..."Frammin' at the jim-jam, frippin' in the krotz."

Bill this is the first time I have posted any pictures of the Midas, so I know it wasn't mine that you were looking at. The serial number is in the 900s.
