All,
I just acquired a used Uberti Cattleman in .44 Magnum. The serial number is late 27xxx, all matching w/ AA date stamp 1975 date of manufacture. Left side frame stamp below the cylinder:
IVER JOHNSON'S
FITCHBURG-MASS-U.S.A.
My concern lies with the fact that there is no half-cock notch. The only audible or tactile indicator throughout rearward hammer travel is a click just before full-cock. Stopping rearward movement at this click does not hold the hammer back. I'm open to suggestions, recommendations, etc.
I informed the seller that I would be researching this concern and report back to him with my findings.
TIA,
Keith
