How to take the locks off my Hammer Gun - 02/24/13 03:38 PM
Lads,
Could someone advise me on how to take the locks off my old Greener hammer gun?
I know some will advise "Don't"
But damn it, I've been dying to take a peek for years, & have good turnscrews.
is a 1901 under lever bar action sidelock .Should the re bounding locks be cocked, or in the fired position?
I'd guess at taking the hammers off , then the through pin that pulls the locks together?
But would like to hear from someone before I try.
The worst part seems like it would be getting the hammers off their square axles, if they are a tight fit,like they should be.If they don't come of easy, I'll abort.
Cheers
franc
