I posted this question about a year ago. I'm back at my Allen & Thurber Pepperbox again. It seems the hook end of the sear is worn off and it will not hold the main spring at all. I know there is a keeper to do this. A friend wanted to see if he could help and apparently the small square keeper...
Allen & Thurber
Hi Jim --
Please accept my apology. I have been out of town and other things came up. I just happened to check the website and unbelievable. Yours is the closest answer I have had. However the square nut you mention was not in your photo. That seems to be what is not holding...
Had no sooner bought an 1845 Allen & Thurber 6 barrel pepperbox then the hammer spring(?) fell off in the grip. I have tried repeatedly to put it together with the small square keeper and the curved spring but it will not stay together. Any help will be appreciated.
