How do I find a particular patent drawing? - The Firearms Forum

I want to look up a patent drawing for an old rifle. How do I find it? I understand that the google patent page will probably give me what I want but unless I know who the patent was issued to or a number, how can I do a search for it?

Gun in question is Stevens 44 1/2.

Heres the google patent page.

I think thats the No.26 Crackshot according to a diagram I have. The Crackshot came out in 1913 to if I'm reading it correctly.

The 44 1/2 came out earlier than that, 1904 or 05 I think.

didn't think i had the 44 1/2

The 44 1/2 had an angled firing pin and it had a flat main spring I remember right.

Thanks for looking.

I'll find it eventually.
