doublegunshop.com - home Forums General Discussion DoubleGun BBS @ doublegunshop.com Opinions on best sxs boxlock design?

[quote=2-piper]The three main action designs for break open double guns are; sidelock, boxlock & trigger plate. A boxlock does not have to be of Anson Deely design to qualify as such. There were even muzzle-loaders well before Anson & Deely which were called BoxLocks because the firing mechanism was placed "In the Box" (Frame) rather than on a side plate. [/quote

That�s exactly why I said �Usually� in my post Miller. Hard to argue that when we refer to a BL, it�s USUALLY in reference to an A&D because there were many more of that type action & system built than any other mousetrap design that could also be referred to as a boxlock. The MF Ideal is a trigger plate (in a sense) striker fired lever cocked action. It�s literally the furthest thing from a BL.

I like Lefevers too btw.
