Interesting photo. Are we looking at the end of a split firing pin? The original Henry rifle employed a split firing pin to strike the rim in two places at once, for increased reliability. So I have read, but I have never seen one.
That's bad business! How long do you think I'd stay in operation if it cost me money every time I pulled a job? If he'd pay me that much to stop robbing him, I'd stop robbing him.

Ya probably inherited every penny ya got!

Got a few thousand rounds of .44 Henry Rimfire Flat ammo to go with it? ;D
Ride to the sound of the guns, but watch out for bushwhackers! Godspeed to all in harm's way in the defense of Freedom! God Bless America!
