Early hammerless guns were made with a two piece top tang. I believe that it was because they used the same forging for both hammer and hammerless guns, so had to add an extension for the safety. I would be concerned about the barrel length. Hunter Arms would make barrels as short as 24" on request, but in the period of this gun, anything less than 28" was not common.
