Several weeks ago, I found an original conversion cylinder for sale. I don't remember if it was for a Colt, Remington or ... Instead of 6 bolt notches in the cylinder, it had 12 bolt. Apparently, the extra 6 were intended for locking the cylinder while the hammer rested between two chambers. I'm actually considering adding one notch, so there is one "double-safe hammer in the safety notches" carrying position. What is the consensus of the group on this idea? On a side note, would anyone know the CAS implications? In other words, would it be a legal modification?

Thanks!
P.S. - I made another attempt at making a brass front sight for my stainless 1858, haven't taken any pictures yet, but I should have some taken and posted by next week.
