7, By Dexter. To open, half or full cock the hammer; then swing down the lever on the right side of the frame, which depresses the breech block. (In principle generally similar to the Rem- ington-Hepburn action. ) PLATE 25 No. 1, By E. S. Allin. The principal difference between this and the regular Springneld-Allin is the center hung hammer, the mainspring of which lies under the receiver. A similar device, which, how- ever, preserved the Allin breech block intact, was submitted by James Stillm...an, master stocker of the Springfield Armory. No. 2, W. S. Smoot. To open, cock, then draw back thumb piece of cam-lever, which lowers the breech block. To load and close, insert a cartridge and strike the thumb piece forward with the palm of the hand. The breech block when closed is locked by a projection on the nose of the hammer passing under the rear end of the cam-lever. No. 3, By I. M. Milbank. To open, raise and draw back the handle of the breech bolt. Individ- ualities: this bolt action is cocked by pressing the bolt forward; ejection is accomplished by a spiral spring set in the face of the bolt; a safety lock pro- 176 OUR RIFLES j acting through the guard strap in rear of the trigger guard must be pressed upward before the gun can be fired.
