Tom thanks for the Drawing, will post some pictures in a day or two.
I made this as practice on making small parts, I lack a lot in the in the making of small parts and bits stuff like the hammer and trigger and getting the hammer spring to work (which is made from a sliver that I cut our of a Spring Rake Tine). Anyway I have started an 1885 Winchester Highwall Rifle in 45/70 or I should say I have started the receiver, and there's a lot of little parts in it so I did this sorta as extra homework for making little stuff like the barrel latch, the firing pin, and the safety which isn't in this photo, Yea I know the parts look a little big and clumsy. I did go from three parts on the barrel latch that were silver soldered together to two because I re done the lever so the pad is made on the lever.
I will shot it just to prove that it works then its onto the shelf while I make a knurler or something else. who knows maybe an improved version. oooh yea its caliber is 9 MM cause thats what the barrel stub was.
