Them dang underhammer pistols!

[omarick1948]

I like them underhammer pistols and would like to know more about them and get some plans and parts for making one! Does anyone still make a kit for them anymore?

Shot one this weekend and I'm hooked and can't get up!

Look for Herschel Logan's book "Underhammer Guns" http://www.amazon.com/Underhammer-guns-Herschel-C-Logan/dp/B0007E57ES

I found one on E-bay for $9.00

I might still have some underhammer parts in storage but will not be
able to look till next spring.

What type of underhammer did you shoot?

Grey Haven Arms makes underhammer pistols. They cost $$$, but I have shot them and they are really well built pistols.

Tinker2, It was a H&A Boot Gun that was modified by someone other than the person who let me take a few shots with it. Nothing fancy! Please keep me in mind when you look next Spring and thanks for all the information.

Dan,

That is a beauty. You have to love the simplicity of an underhammer.

Simpilicity.....yes. That last gun is a beauty. A couple of levers and a spring.
The Greyhaven uses the trigger guard as the spring, only three moving parts counting the spring.
