Clembert, very nice! At least the load lever only dropped once!

That is my only drawback with the Walker. And I do not have the funds to do a Dragoon .44 as much as I want to do so.

Thanks for the vid. Good job!

Kudos, sir!

The ol' Walker recoil loading lever anomaly. :cuss: If you look close you can see I slipped on a rubber O-ring after that happened...LOL! It's the easiest way to deal with that problem albeit not a purty elegant solution. The solution is to reshape the loading lever catch with a file. I just never got around to doing it myself. The Walker video was made 7 years ago and I have yet to do the fix...LOL!

Here's a video on it (not meant to be funny, but is).

 
BTW, many of the Dragoon revolvers have a similar problem with the loading lever dropping at higher charges and I understand that increasing the depth of the lever catch's retaining area or putting a stronger spring behind the loading lever latch is the solution. I seem to recall I had to reshape the catch on my Uberti 1858 for a similar problem so the problem isn't even limited to the Walker or Dragoons.
