Hammer Search

Posted by Richard Ranney on June 4, 2021, 10:02 pm

I’ve exhausted myself searching for original hammers for a 12ga made in 1906. As I understand they should be C type. If anyone has a lead or happens to have a couple I’m in the market. If I buy the cast ones to replace I have no way to fit them. Thanks

You may have already checked here, but this guy has quite a stockpile of Elsie parts —> http://shotgunbarrelsandstocks.com/lc-smith-shotguns/

I have a set. Both are C type but the knuraling pattern dosn't match. I have the complete locks. sfchenretty@gmail.com

Vance can you send me a picture of those if I give you my email? I’d really like to see these. I’m restoring this gun for a keepsake and it will only be a wall hanger so I don’t believe a difference in pattern will matter. Thanks
