How About Putting Together a Spencer Repair or Troubleshooting Manual?

[Two Flints]

Well, I did it!      I made the suggestion       What d'ya think of my suggestion?   

Imagine , those of you who have the knowledge, each contributing your thoughts and ideas,  and by putting them all together, we could end up with a repair or troubleshooting manual for our Spencers, be they originals or reproductions. 

I'll leave it up to you to decide if it's a good idea or not.

I had a conversation yesterday with Nate Kiowa Jones (aka Steve Young of Steve's Gunz
well known for his work on leverguns for the CAS crowd) and he mentioned that he's
done some work with the Taylor Spencers.  He feels that he has a good understanding
of the gun.  Interestingly, he found that removal of one of the extractor hooks smooths
up operation of the gun.  I've already forgotten which side, but one side of the part is
ground down so that it doesn't contact the case but still acts to align the part in the gun.
Anyway, here's another source of help if you need it.  I pointed him to L. Romano as
well, although he had heard of that producer of Spencers.

Hobie,

Maybe you can get him to join SSS, and that way he would be available to answer questions that members might have on their Spencers when they have problems?

Does he have an Email address?

Two Flints, that's a great idea.  There is probably lots of material in the posts of the SSS.  Perhaps you can read through & then ask the originator of each post to add clarifying language/photos & send to you as a Word or other word processor file?
