Stevens "tip-up" single shot pistols
« on: January 14, 2006, 10:19:32 PM »
I am looking for blue prints or engineering drawings for the old Stevens tip up single shot pistol. I have a 45-70 barrel that I would like to make into a matched set of Stevens pistols. Does anyone know where I can find drawings that will help me duplicate these fine old pistols in 45 colt?

Hodgdon, Lyman, Speer, Sierra, Hornady = reliable resources
so and so's pages on the internet = not reliable resources
Alway check loads you find on the internet against manuals.
NEVER exceed maximum listed loads.

Paul,
Stevens made tip-up rifles up to .44-40 cal.  The action and locking mechanism were different than pistols.  So, you'll need a b/p for those.  No, I can't help you with that.
