Any antique fans out there?
I just got a Sharps & Hankins 4 barrel pistol and I would like to remove the barrels from the frame without experimenting. Anyone know the secret?

The 22, 30 and 32 RF are all the same as far as I can remember..

Push the bbl release button and pull the bbls all the way forward.

Then remove the bbl lock pivot screw from the side of the frame (left side IIRC).
This screw sits cross wise thru the frame in the front section about mid way between the front of the frame and the breech face on nearly all the versions.

Then move the bbl release button up and down to drop the bbl lock. The spring tension will be released from the bbl lock and it should slide out of position with the screw removed. The bbl assembly should be able to be removed by sliding it forward the rest of the way off the frame.

The bbl lock assembly then comes right out of it's recess in the frame under the bbl.
