Fulton Sear

Posted by Denver Dillard on July 25, 2024, 9:15 am

I need the left sear for a Fulton Special. Numrich is out of stock and eBay shows nothing.
Email is denverdillard@q.com.
Thank you for any help.

The email you listed does not seem to work.

I may have what you need but I will need a pic of the other sear so I can make sure they are the same shape.

Thanks

Hello Travis,
Rather than my screwing up photos, I will direct you to search the Forum for Fulton Sear. Select David Williamson's post of "Fulton Special 12 ga." His pictures are of a Gladiator but are the same design. Be sure you have the left sear. If you have the correct part, email me your asking price.
Whoever owned my gun tried to "fix" the sear by grinding about an 1/8th" off the blade that engages the hammer slot. It fires upon cocking.

Maybe I'm over stepping the LC Smith collectors site boundaries here, but if I was asking for help on finding a part and someone is willing to help me out and asking me to supply them with a picture of a part I should have. I would supply the picture and not ask the person willing to help to look for it.
Maybe it just me.

Than you Ken. I accept your criticism. I will try to post a picture.

I was going to note that there were two types of sears for the Fulton box locks but since then you have stated it is the very early type used on Fulton's and Sears Roebuck Gladiators made by Hunter Arms. I refer to that type as a "swinging" sear and is noted by the top screw on the receiver. I can see why they did away with it, not the best way for a sear to be.
Glad Travis has one for you.

Hopefully, here is the picture. I was good at this at age 30, bad at age 79.
