I lightened up the OP's pic.
I have a number of Iver Johnson break tops. I collected them because my grandfather had one in the Alaskan Gold rush, and it is the only gun he brought back. I have fixed a lot of them. Most common is the trigger spring breaks.
Back in the 1970s pawn shops had so many the stored a stack of them strung on a wire through the trigger guard. The gun buy back programs have wiped out the glut.
Generally they are not worth much for collecting and not worth much for functionality. You have to want to fool around with them.

Magnum Wheel Man,
What kind of rod did you poke up the muzzle for the gun display?
Any rust or scratching problems?
You happy with that system?

Are we a nation of competing ideas, or a nation of forced conformity of thought?
