    Thanks for the response. Here are my questions. I asked earlier if it is
    common for 3/4" breech balls on a 1907 Fulton? The C 4/7 W&R stamped on the
    underside of the barrel what might the C be? I'm just guessing 4th month of
    07? W&R ? In the Grades of L C Smith I only found reference to the hammer
    guns and grade F under post 1884 Syracuse did this carry over to Fulton
    production. My stepson went to gunsmith school in Pittsburgh Pa. then was
    hired by Shiloh Sharps in Montana, with the passing of his grandfather and
    health concerns with other relatives he moved back to PA. for a few
    years.He's willing to help me, he's fascinated with this firearm and its
    history as simple as it may be. The right hammer has some play when in the
    uncocked position and the lever to open the barrel is not centered it's
    slightly right when closed. Everything else is very tight on this shotgun.
    Should we attempt disassembly to look inside or leave it alone? This shotgun is a 12 gauge 2 3/4 chamber 30" barrels. First trigger right barrel,modified second triger left barrel full choke. Thanks so much Todd
