Thanks Parabola for showing a certainly not low end gun with the inclined slot/doll's head rib extension. For Brent's edification has it ever popped open on firing?

And Brent, I don't believe that, you twist! I believe the Merkle has double underlugs and crossbolt? Not one lug and crossbolt? I remember you have or have had in your estimation a soulless, ugly Ithaca/SKB. Double underlug, rarely single underlug. Still get it out for Grouse?
