if I remember right, Mikov with two springs is a older model, nice work, I have made a few Mikov kits, that top bolster pin was tuff to peen, mine did not look good at all but did fire very hard.

Thanks......I peened my pivot pin with my brass hammer....later I got a pin with a concave end...it gave a neater rounded pin.
Yup...they fire hard.

I got another Mikov kit and a set of a black/gold swirls.....should look nice if I ever get around to putting it together....I have not done one in a long time...hope I have not lost the knack.

Thanks Sammy....I just guessed at the color....it did not come out until after a lot of sanding and hand polishing..
