GENTLEMEN: THANKS FOR YOUR HELP. I HAVE ACQUIRED THE PARTS FROM THE L.C. SMITH MAN, WALT SCHIESSL IN CALIFORNIA. APPARENTLY THE 10 AND THE 12 OF THE "O" AND "OO" SERIES USE THE SAME COCKING RODS....BUT WITH THAT SAID SOME ARE A BIT LONGER THAN OTHERS. I SENT THE BROKEN PART TO WALT AND HE IS MATCHING-UP AND SENDING ME THE CORRECT LENGTH FOR MY OLD 10 BORE. MY NEXT CHALLENGE IS MY "oo" 12 GAUGE WHICH APPARENTLY HAS A BROKEN PART INTERNALLY. IT LOCKED UP LAST SATURDAY AFTER DISPATCHING 13 PHEASANTS ON A TOWER SHOOT. THE LEVER MOVES BUT THE GUN WILL NOT OPEN! AT THE GUNSMITH FOR DETERMMINATION AS WE SPEAK. AGAIN, THANKS TO ALL WHO SENT ALONG ADVICE....APPRECIATED. TOM
