Mr. Nash: I can't blow-up my photography to a greater magnification than I already have, but...one can still increase (massively!) the magnification of the photography on Kirby Hoyt's webpage and...when you go to the photographs on his webpage showing the top of this gun, there it is. Very clearly on the left tube (the right tube is better matched & obscured by engraving) are the seams of the replaced metal that filled those pinfire-ignition holes. Very artfully done, but clearly still there. This gun is/was a pinfire first!

Thank you for that insight! The next question that comes to my mind is...could one fit dual-fire hammers to it? That would be pretty darn neat.
