Re: Converting Miroku/Late Model Winchester Rebounding Hammer & Tang Safety to Traditional

Rebounders get a bad rap because they can cause misfires.
I don't mind them and understand them.
Light strikes can be easily overcome by removing some material from the lower portion acting on the hammer to rebound it. And it doesn't take much but it will improve reliability.
