Identification
Notes on the actuating lever are still at the bench
Identification notes are written one part at a time, from pieces Butch has had in hand — so this section fills in as he works through the vocabulary rather than all at once. If you are trying to identify a actuating lever you already own, he answers those directly at butch@butchsantiquegunparts.com.

Availability
Nothing of this type is listed at the moment. Most of this catalog is one-of-a-kind, so stock turns over item by item rather than being restocked — posting a wanted listing is the reliable route, and aggregated requests are what tell Butch which parts to make next.
