I was leafing through the new August American Rifleman and noticed a couple of clangers right off.
In seven pages of plugs for Rossi firearms, the picture caption showing a S&W type hammer block calls it a "transfer bar." Strangely, the text gets it right.
Likewise a piece on the Colt Police Positive says it has "an early form of transfer bar safety" in spite of a real Colt catalog quote "a solid bar of steel, 1/10th inch in thickness, rests directly between the hammer and the frame, except when the trigger is being pulled."
C'mon, man, name the parts right.
Or am I being too picky?
