I am assuming you have a Hopkins and Allen swivel breech with numrich arms barrels. I bought one of those at Dixie Gun Works in 1973. In fact I shot it today at a deer. ( missed both shots). Does it have the lock that uses the bottom part of the main spring for a sear spring?. :idunno: If so someone has worked on the spring. The problem with that lock is that it has a very heavy pull. which makes accuracy a problem since you tend to pull so hard on the trigger you end up pulling your shots low. You might contact Dixie for parts since they sold them! :idunno:

I think your'e right,it is a Hopkins and Allen....I just found it in the Numrich catalog under H&A listed as as an over/under gun....looks like a lot of parts are available.
Thanks.
