Looks good, does it mount by using the loading lever screw?

Yessir, and until Walt can make them with CNC, I install a locator pin in the barrel at the end of the rod housing. It's a mod of an 1860 ejector.

Haa!! Thanks!! I'll put a longer rod in it eventually.

Are they going to be available? I know I want one or maybe two.

I got good news though!!! ( next post)

I got about 30 rounds down range with it today and it stayed planted!! So, it's a good ( work around) mounting !! I'll be adding a longer rod to get "almost" full ejection. Definitely better than having to poke um out with a brass rod on a skeleton key!!

Is that a key with a bunch of cut outs or did you roll a skeleton and swipe it??

Rolled a skeleton and swiped it if course!!! Lol
