Back in 1972, I bought a Monkey Wards Model 100SB single shot 20 gauge. On top of the receiver was a piece that you hooked with your thumb and pulled straight back. This cocked the internal hammer, unlocked the breech and applied the safety. The gun was made by Savage for Wards. There was no top lever as on a typical hammerless SxS, though.
