Hello All,

Would you please have a look at the attached photo of the hammer from an 1880s era 1873 rifle with a set trigger? As you can see, the upper serration on the hammer is sadly broken off.

I need a recommendation or two for an excellent repair shop that can get this hammer back into nice shape again.

Thanks and regards.
