Had my Long Barrel ROA's cut down some years back. I kept the levers but not the latch that goes on the end of the barrel.

Would it be possible to have those levers put back on ( cut down of corse) Or just sell  them ??

That's my questions.

Thanks

JMOHO............

No problem at all... The levers are not case hardened like on most of the C&B pistolas, so cutting through them should be a lot easier.

 The lever retaining latch keeps everything `neat `n` tidy` Grin As the Rooger has the locking screw/cam it makes it not an absolute essential, `specially on a shorter barrel, but it looks a lot better IMO.

Hope this helps pard.

Mason.

I'm not gonna tell ya, ya shoulda kept the latch.  The heck I'm not.  Shoulda kept the latch!!
And yes, if you had the latch, cutting the lever and welding it back up proper length would be no problem for a good welder. 
They do look a mite better with the loading lever added back, but as you already know, doesn't make any difference for actual shooting.  Just the "look."
