I have an early Hopkins and Allen spur trigger revolver that has a substitute cylinder axis pin. It works after a fashion, and does add some character, but the tolerances are such that the cylinder has too much play. I can make a replacement pin that will look appropriate and work better. But the way the pin was retained in the gun is different than I have seen before. A spring was swaged to the underside of the barrel and is broken off. I have no idea what it looked like or how it was depressed to remove the pin. Can anyone help? A picture of an intact specimen would be ideal.
My Flayderman's does have a small photo, but not enough detail to build another part from. I still need a close up picture of another axis pin or a drawing of the part.
I found a couple of better photos of what one of these is supposed to look like. This is a Bacon Revolver, but that makes sense. H&A bought up the assests of Bacon and used up their parts.
