Both of my Merkel drillings have cheekpieces with drop to comb of about 1-3/4 inches. Does a cheekpiece act to raise or lower the effective drop to comb, or is it just another extraneous Prussian or European feature? Do the LOP and drop to comb and heel typically follow traditional SXS measurements? Thanks
