#1 rolling block action

[d 25 87]

My #1 rolling block has a small bit off fore and aft play at half cock .What is the correct clearance betweenlocking surfaces of hammer and block ?

Hi There,

I not aware of any published specifications for the hammer
to breech block clearance. In my experience, when new
these Rolling Blocks have very little "play" between breech
and hammer at half-cock but most will exhibit a little per-
ceivable play in that area. This isn't really a problem so
long as the headspace is still good.

Cheers!
