A new Miroku 1873
BikerTom:
It has a rotating "hook"/"latch" just behind the lever. None of my other lever actions have that. I know what it does, but why's it necessary?
Abilene:
Well, I guess the Winchester designers wanted it there! :)
All '73's and '76's have it.
LB001:
It keeps the lever locked in a closed position, as might be necessary when riding a horse.

I was hoping that was the case. Authenticity, and all. Even though mine is a repro, obviously.
Thanks.

I never would have guessed that.
Thanks.
