Much better. Now we need one of the corresponding cut in the cam - and similar ones of an older model.

Somebody better give him those pictures. You know how UC can get when he doesn't get what he wants. :D

Well, I sold my blue/black one when I got my laminate thumbhole one. That would have fit the bill. I think I bought it 2 or 3 years ago. I'll check when I get home and see if I have any pics of the cam. I think I recall taking some of the action for a guy who was looking about building me a custom stock for it. There used to be a guy on here Roskoe I think was his screen name that bought his the same month I did. Haven't seen him around for a while though.

Ok so I looked through my images and this is as close as I can find. I have none of the actual face of the cam. I took a similar one just now of the new one for comparrison. After looking at the image of the old one I am now convinced that the finish of the older ones was different. It was a lot smoother and glossy.









That being said, I had buildup on the face w/all powders except BH. After about 8 shots or so I would have to wipe it as it would get hard to open. It will be interesting to see if the new finish is better or worse than the old one.

How is that gun on blowback? Or does it not exist due to the cam?

Gotbuck I have not shot it yet but I will be sure and let you know about the blowback when I do.

I haven't fired mine yet either but from what I've heard the blowback isn't that bad.

My first one left just a tiny amount of residue on the underside of the scope. My guess is they will all do that sooner or later.

I only shot mine 10 or 12 times so far using Blackhorn 209 very little blow back if any

I think its a pretty good idea.I don't remember where I read it but it said there are more hunting accidents with a single shot exposedhammer style gun than any other type

Unless someone is idiot enough to hunt with that hammer cocked - it does nothing to prevent an accident.

Exactly! I wonder how much idiot it takes to become idiot enough?

Cock the hammer when you are about to shoot...ONLY!!!

Sadly, [&o]Twice this year I have met other hunters in the woods and seen their rifles in the cocked position. One guy acted like it was an accident (maybe it was, maybe it wasn't, don't know) the other guy didn't have a clue it wasn't safe.

I took a guy hunting with medown in Francis Marion in SC years ago. He was carrying a 700 Remington ready to go, saftey off. I noticed and told him that was very unsafe. He said that's the way he hunted. I told him the hunt was over and never even so much as talked to him about hunting again.

Those exposed hammer accidents were more than likely from those Winchester Moderl 94's.
Sisters boy friend years ago had racked a round in the chamber of his and was letting the hammer down, thumb sliped on the hammer and he shot his truck. Neighbour lady had loaded hers in the kitchen and was letting the hammer down when her thumb sliped off the hammer and the round when thru the kitchen ceiling just missing her youngest son sleeping in the bed room above.
