Picked up a Jackie Brown Canoe Gun Today

[Dave Markowitz]

My order from Track arrived today and I repaired the lock after work. It took about a half hour with some needle files to fit the new tumbler to the hammer. I also cleaned up the side of the tumbler that rubs against the lock plate, using a stone.

The hammer now clicks solidly into both the half and full cock notches.

I didn't take pictures of the old or new tumbler, not much to see, honestly. The half cock notch on the old tumbler chipped when the gun fell over.

The outside part of the tumbler that the hammer slides onto is square. I had to do some file work to get them to mate.
