JBLondon,
May I bother you for the Powell's Patent number on the action flat?

Jboger & JBLondon,
If you want a copy of the sale information from the Powell day book, I need your

Steve: I believe your last question is directed to dukxdog, yes? The 16 ga. Taylor gun does not look like a lifter, although a fine looking gun. My Powell definitely is. 
With a fine gun on his arm, a man becomes a sporting gentleman, both on the field and off.

dukxdog,
The Powell lifter was a single bite snap action. Lock-up was between the lift lever and a lump that protruded into the breech face. The lift lever of the 'Taylor' is similar in appearance to that of the Powell but my memory tells me the action lock-up was much different. Toby - do you remember the 'innards' of the Taylor?
