Re: Third Fastners??

In reply to:
Are they necessary?
Today I don't think they are necessarily needed, but are desirable to me, as a safety back-up. I don't think they work the way people seem to think!
In reply to:
That only a couple work, that none work, that all work
I think, also, the only ones that work, at all, before something else fails, are well fitted DOLL'S HEADS.
In reply to:
Do the soupposedly 'New' steels negate the need?
I don't think there is much doubt that modern alloys are a big help with the stringth of double rifles.
In reply to:
Do Makers that use one do it for show or because they like spending more money to make rifles?
I believe in some cases it is strictly for show, but in most cases, it is, simply, because that is the way they have always done it!.
I do not believe the B. Searcy would be better with a third fastener, but some folks might be more prone to buy one if they had one!
