This thing was awesome!! It had several qualities that you find in parts made with the human eye/hands. The hammers were a bit rough and not quite symetrical. The Stock had some old checkering that had been rubbed on for quite some time. The whole of it was a tad rough with a lot of tick marks on the reciever and the forestock was withering away; or mayber just made real crappy to begin with. I don't know. The release lever was mounted on the left side bottom and swung back toward the thumb. You had to push down to open and pull it back up to lock it. It closed and stayed that way pretty good but the lever it's self would wonder down and it would come open. The barrels were probably, if I could lend a guess, full cylinders and they looked pretty thin at the ends. It was 100% patina'ed and had some junk, maybe rust, down in both barrels. It was not the best light for inspecting old stuff in nor did I even remeber to snag a pic with the camera, but it was a fun evening for sure.
Just a nice peice of craftmenship if I have ever seen one. I hope it stays in a safe place for others to enjoy looking at and handling it for many more moons.
