Look like southgates to me. Pretty basic. Most SxS doubles made today or within the last 50 years or so use some sort of rendition of the southgate. Very simple.

I knew Southgates were/are pretty common, and most of my doubles have ejectors ......... almost all of them. But, none of them require the effort to cock as the Dickinson. Guess i shouldn't have assumed there was a difference.

Stan,
Just looking at Dougs pics....those springs that power the ejectors on his Dickinson are absolutely ginormous. They look to be much beefier and thicker than what youd find on other guns using southgates. More than likely...thats why the ejectors are so stiff to cock. Those are big ass v-springs.

That brings up another question that I have always pondered ..............why are .410s so hard to eject? My Dickinson is a .410, and even with the beefy ejector springs it doesn't kick the hulls as far as you would think it would.

Anyway, it's all very interesting. Thanks.
