I broke the hammer spring on my early contender (pre safety). The lgs has Contender hammer springs but they are different than mine. Will the new spring work in the old style hammer? This is the spring the gun had...

I have a 12 year old granddaughter that wants to start bird hunting. She is on the small size so I'm thinking 20 ga. We will be hunting waterfowl over decoys and pheasants. She has a semi auto 22 so a semi auto would be nice. I'm thinking a semi auto 20 ga. with a 26" or shorter barrel and...

I built this Gemmer percussion pistol this summer and just finished it. It has a 57 caliber barrel, walnut stock with pewter nose cap. I rust blued the metal. Shoots good with 30 grains of 3f and a .555 round ball with a thick patch. What do you think? SC45-70
