PICTURES, PICTURES, PICTURES!  Otherwise, we have no idea what you have.

I don't have a Pietta so I could easily be wrong, but I thought they got away with it by using the two-position cylinder pin.  And last I heard, Uberti was still using the old system for their so-called black powder framed guns.

The parts are a little different for a flat top. The regular ones fit and work but look silly.

Awesome! No pic's?

Morning y'all.
Coffee and tea are ready.

'Tis 28 and sunny. High of 69 and sunny.

Apparently not a lot of 45-75 shooting going on, but every year a large group of us trek up the NRA Whittington Center range for a week of shooting, visiting, and just enjoying each others company. I take my original (3 digit serial number) and shoot a hundred or so rounds each trip. Theres more than a couple folks lined up to try it.
      I made cut off jigs to shorten donor brass, as I still have a good supply of 50 Alaskan from Starline. I keep 150-200 loaded so I don't run out.

That sounds like an amazing find! The 1865 Spencer Carbine has such a rich history. I love how these pieces connect us to the past. By the way, I've been hooked on Retro Bowl lately—it's a great way to unwind and enjoy some football action!

Ah yes, didn't realize you got the wider hammer, that definitely is harder to find new in a 4-clicker.

I checked the other sources and did not find any stock - I was buying the wide hammer, the wide trigger, and the cylinder. GP / Numrich had the hammer and the cylinder in stock - it took maybe a year for the trigger to show up. I was not dissatisfied with the prices.
