Interesting Jim. Neither hammer I have engages a safety notch. The old hammer was cracked at the mainspring conection and had the single action nothc ground. So I wasn't sure if it ever had a safety notch. Once I replaced the hammer and still had no safety notch I assumed the design didn't have one. I really need to study the action and understand how it works. Maybe I nEed yet another hammer or possibly some other part. A safety notch would be preferred.

I also want to understand the ability to stage the trigger and engage the single action notch. Wonder if the two odd conditions are related.
