Sorry about the bad luck.

Which style hammer? Fixed or floating firing pin? I think the transition took place about 1902 - 1903 so the S/N should give an idea if you haven't removed the hammer yet.

Contact Garland Jackson -- he may be able to help.

Hi Also with the fixed firing pin you must know if you have the small frame gun or regular frame gun. Because the hammers are reversed . The right becomes left and left becomes right. The firing pin and hammer are one unit and the firing pin is offset on the hammer. Say you have a right hammer from a regular frame gun it will be the left hammer on a small frame gun. Hope this helps. Terry

Thanks for the help and advice.

The gun is from 1907 serial number 136009 so it has the floating firing pin.

Does anyone have contact info for Mr Jackson. My google isn't helping.

I sent Garland an email with a link to this post. I'm not sure however how often he visits the forums or reads his mail.

It looks like you have the floating firing pin on your gun (1907). Are you positive it is the hammer broken and not the firing pin? The hammer's on the floating firing gun's usually don't brake. If it is the hammer the right and left hammer is the same on a floating firing pin gun. Terry

Did you find the hammer you need? There are three different ones.
