Hi..two quick questions, I was wondering how many 1885 Winchesters in 45-70 were made for the 2011 Shot Show! The second question is the hammer will not go to half cock. What could the problem be? The rifle is like new..Thanks for any input.

Tim,

You need to call the Browning Arms Company. The modern manufactured Model 1885 Single Shot rifles are not the same as the originals.
