Hi Ward,
Have managed to get spring to engage with hammer sear but am unable to cock the lock, could spring have lost its springiness ? Managed to unscrew every bolt so cleaned and oiled lock and put back together. Have taken barrel out of its seating, active rust underneath and on top, rubbed down with soft cloth and WD40, see photos, is this enough or do you think I should use some fine wire wool and do a more thorough job? I'm not sure how far to go.
My Regards,
Norman.
P.S. Underneath the barrel is a profusion of stamps, anybody any ideas as to what or where?
