Identification
Notes on the carrier 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 carrier you already own, he answers those directly at butch@butchsantiquegunparts.com.
Vocabulary
Other names for the carrier
The same component has been called different things by different makers, manuals and trades. Each term is printed with whatever is recorded about where it comes from.

How the mechanism works
Plates & drawings
Original patent drawings for this mechanism, filed by the people who designed it, with every component called out and numbered. They are grouped by how the part works rather than by which arm it came off — the classification that put them here names the mechanism and says nothing about the gun.
Fits

No interchange recorded yet
Butch Schoeller writes these notes only from parts he has handled. A blank section means nothing has been checked yet — not that everything fits.

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.
