Has anyone tried the new TC Swing-Hammer yet?
Supposedly you just pivot the hammer spur either left or right and it will be right out in the open!

Seems to me like it would be a nice item to have for those of us that use scopes!  This will eliminate the need for a hammer extension!

Would this be an item we can change ourselves or would it be a gunsmith job?

Chuck,
The best I can see, it looks like there is an allen screw through the hammer that locks it into the right, left, or center positions.  Just a guess on my part, but it seems barely visible in the lower right-hand photo.  I would guess that there are some detents that keep it in position and the allen screw locks it down.  It's kind of fuzzy, but it looks like an allen screw to me.  Seems like a pretty simple solution and a sensible design, and something anyone could do.  See what you think. :D

It is a small allen screw that holds it in place, I was told by T/C that you can send in your frame to have the modification done, I did not get a cost. I just got the New Pro-Hunter yesterday in a M/L configuration. It is a well thought out design.  :D
