    New score... Argentine rolling block

    Hey guys, nothing crazy special about this but I thought it was neat enough to share. M1879 Argentineicon rolling block in pretty nice shape and chambered in .43 Spanish.

    I have one question from a safety standpoint if anybody knows: with the hammer down, the breech block moves fore and aft a bit (maybe .020"??). If you push the hammer forward, it all locks up tight. Do you guys think this will be a safety issue if I decide to shoot it? I suspect it won't as the overall condition of this thing is rather nice. That said, I figured somebody on here might know a tolerance? Thanks!
