Hello Tom A.,

1. Thanks for setting me straight on the terminology of the "witness marks" !

I agree proper terms are important. I also think knowing the depth, width, aligment of the marks should be the "same" across the barrel and the frame. This is what I was trying to convey to Jim Elson...

2. Can you tell me what is proper : Take down lever or locking bolt ? I seem to recall reading "locking bolt" was used in the older books, but now the terminology has seemed to switch to "take down lever".

Thanks in advance for your help !!!
