A really excellent example of this mechanism. Takes away the mystique often associated with actions. Something similar to demonstrate a typical lock up would also be welcome
Thanks Diggory, this is a fascinating cutaway and a great video. One of my 12 bores (a Webley & Scott 700) has started doubling - it fires the left barrel at the same time or shortly after the right barrel. The left sear engagement looks ok. Are there any other causes of doubling in a W&S 700 that you know of?
Thank you for the video. I am currently working on restoring a JP Sauer & Sohn double barrel with an Anson-Deeley-Sclob action. I’m needing to source the special tool for replacing the hammer and hammer spring, or a set of plans to make one. Would you happen to know where a chap could find these? Thanks again
If you have a look in my book The British Boxlock Gun and Rifle, it shows you how to dis-assemble and re-assemble a boxlock. The tools you need are basic and can be home made.
Best explanation of how it operates on TH-cam. Kudos.
That is just a wonderful working cut-away, Diggory. Thank you for sharing.
Amazing to see the inner workings
That was fantastic to watch , thank you Diggory

We forget what a great action this is
This is great content, keep it up.
That Sir was Interesting.
It would have been interesting to see how operating the top lever automatically resets the safety catch.

I owned a 12 ga Wolf (a shotgun made in Suhl- DDR) a long time ago that had the same problem. I never found out what caused the problem.
