Youre very welcome, Im happy to share. But apologies to the OP, I wasnt trying to hijack his thread on collecting hammer guns with a discussion on safeties!

Perhaps its a good example of why more attention on collecting hammer guns is important, while they are still out there to be found. There is a lot to 19th Century gunmaking still left to ponder about.
