Jack's comment about the AYA #2 effort in cocking follows my experience. If the AYA copied the H&H ejector system faithfully, it makes me wonder why all the seemingly praise/respect/ooo & aaaahs for the H&H ejector system.

Frankly, all the BSS guns I've owned were easier to cock than a AYA. Maybe that's the issue, many designs of ejectors are simply not all that easy to cock because they aren't optimized designs? Having put many tens of thousands of rounds thru BSS guns, I can say I haven't felt a better cocking system in a double for both the hammers and ejectors. Where's that helmet?
